Windows Phone 8 Marketplace Availability List

Marketplace to be available for 180 Countries
Once Windows Phone 8 gets available

Microsoft has announced and published the list of 180 countries which will be having access to the marketplace for Windows Phone 8. Currently the marketplace is only available for 63 countries which makes it a 3 times bigger up to 180 countries. Well that includes “Pakistan” as well. Microsoft mentioned during the Windows Phone 8 event back last week that the marketplace will be expanded to 180 countries but didn’t disclose the names of those countries. So here they are! check the list of countries right below.

But wait! What’s even more pleasurable for developers around the world is that the App Hub will also be available for the developers from these countries where the Marketplace is going to be available. This jump is really huge from 38 markets currently where the developers can submit their Windows Phone apps from.
