Sora 2 is the new version of OpenAI’s video generator and it has continued to be talked about in recent days. The physics of movements achieves astonishing precision in the videos generated on the fly: a ball bounces realistically, the characters move coherently. Its latest innovation even allows you to integrate your own face into any generated scene, leaving all the creativity to deepfake creators and content thieves.
Issue : Sora 2 remains strictly reserved for US and Canadian residents. Any attempt to access from France results in the message “Service not available in your region” and OpenAI has not communicated any date for the European opening. If you want to generate videos via the Sora by OpenAI application, you will need a little patience and resourcefulness to unlock Sora 2 in France. Below, we have detailed the four-step procedure for you if you are in France and want to access the service. Three things to know: you need a VPN with servers in the United States, you will need to create an American Apple ID, and you will finally need to obtain an invitation code.
The procedure to unlock Sora 2 in France
Step 1: Install a powerful VPN
- Subscribe to an effective VPN service like NordVPN (accessible in the US/Canada)
- Install the VPN app on your smartphone
- Connect to a US server
I download NordVPN
Step 2: Create a US Apple ID
- Go to Apple.com and set up a new account
- Select the United States as the region when creating (not France)
- Log out of your regular App Store account
- Identify yourself with these new American identifiers
- Download the Sora by OpenAI application (note: only available on iOS, not Android)
Step 3: Get an invitation code
- Join the official OpenAI Discord server
- Access the channel dedicated to Sora 2 (sora-2)
- Collect an invitation code (each user receives four codes to distribute)
Step 4: Activate Sora 2
- With your VPN connected, go to sora.chatgpt.com/explore
- Connect your OpenAI account
- Enter your invitation code
- Start generating your videos with AI
As you can see, the process today requires patience and technical manipulations but it works from France: if you want to be a pioneer, this is the only way to do so. OpenAI established this invitation system to limit initial enthusiasm and validate its social network. With more than a million downloads in five days, the application transforms video creation into a social experience where everyone can remix each other’s productions.
