So yesterday the DLC was announced and it seems they are charging $20 in the US and £20 in the UK. This means that players in the US are basically only paying £12 for the DLC while UK players have to pay what is equal to $31. A few years ago Apple got in a lot of trouble with not changing for the exchange rate and in the end they had to adjust from a $1/£1 a song model and start charging 79p in the UK instead. This should be happening here now.
Bungie and Activision. The $ and the £ are not the same thing. UK players should not be paying £20/ $31 while US only pay $20/£12 for the same content.

Because it's not a country of production and your country has import laws. Stop bitching saying that it's the game companies if you can't even realize it's most likely a tariff by your country.

Be glad you don't live in Australia .... Costs us twice as much for everything

Well, a brand need PS4 game in the UK is usually £59.99 without shopping around as on the PS Store. I understand the US pays about $57-$59, so at least we are being consistently ripped off.

It's $44 dollars here in new Zealand for both dlc bundle(about £22 the two).its well cheap.

honestly it's not just them , ever look at games on Steam >_< 1$ = 1Euro = 1GBP ........... because why not <_<

Euros ar not the same either - just saying. But yup you got it - it´s a huge money-making-machine. They even use currencies.
-

Well as far as i can remember they charge 20 euros as well. That would be like 26-27 dollars / 16-17 pounds.
