No blu-ray player? O_o
Yes, blu-ray players still have region locking, but there are fewer regions than with DVD.  There are only 3 regions:

Region A: North America, South America, U.S. Territories, Japan, South Korea,
Taiwan, and other areas of Southeast Asia

Region B: Europe, Africa, Middle East, Australia, and New Zealand.

Region C: Asia (except for Japan, Korea, Taiwan, and other areas of Southeast
Asia)


But for 4K blu-ray discs, I've heard 4K blu-ray discs/players only have one region and thus will play anywhere.
