Can I choose any IGN global edition from my location?

If you'd prefer to view an alternative IGN edition than the one you are redirected to based on location, please use the "sticky links" in the Edition Select, located in header of any IGN edition above the IGN logo (or on some pages, via the "More" link in header > "Change Region" dropdown).

For example, the US edition sticky link is: http://www.ign.com/?setccpref=US. (For users in China, the US edition sticky link is: http://cn.ign.com/ccpref/us ).

If the sticky link bypass is not working for you, it could be a problem with your cookies; please try a cache reset and deleting your IGN cookies and then it should work as normal. Please contact support if you continue to experience issues, or visit world.ign.com for more information and a list of all IGN global editions.
