Overwatch in Japan. Region Choice.

Im living in Japan but im not sure what region i should be playing in. I checked the FAQ on Blizzards website and it say southeast asia should be NA but im not sure if Japan falls into that. If any of yall can help me out that would be great. Thanks yall!

    Please somehow make CNN1, China North Server to go online again. That server only exists for a few days, less than a week, then I can't join it anyway. I live in Beijing, and the servers in Hangzhou are a little laggy.

    We're working on bringing them back. Just making sure they're very stable first!

    Japan has their own server (run by AWS) in Tokyo, on the Asia region.

    Here's a complete list as far as we know: https://www.reddit.com/r/Overwatch/comments/6blbkj/til_that_overwatch_servers_are_named_by_airports/dhnpq7k/?st=j44uyk39&sh=2282fbbc

    Yep this is correct. For PC use Asia region. For console no region selection is necessary.
