The list of countries in which the specific product can be activated is available in the product description as well as in the title. The title contains different terms for each country or region, for example:
- Region Free refers to global with restrictions.
- EMEA - meant for Europe, the Middle East and Africa regions;
- ROW (Rest of the World) – usually available for most countries, but with certain exceptions, so please make sure to check the product's region restrictions for more information.
The term "region-free" typically refers to the ability of a gaming console or game to work across different geographical regions without being restricted by regional coding. Here's a summary of the region-free policies for PlayStation, Xbox, and Nintendo consoles:
PlayStation- PlayStation 4 and PlayStation 5: Both consoles are region-free for games, meaning you can play games from any region on these consoles. However, DLC (downloadable content) and online services might still be region-locked.
- PlayStation Network (PSN): Your PSN account region can affect your access to content, and some services or games may not be available in all regions. You might also encounter issues with payment methods if they do not match the region of your PSN account.
- Xbox One and Xbox Series X|S: These consoles are region-free for games. You can play games from any region on these consoles. The Xbox Live service is also region-free, meaning you can access your account from anywhere.
- Xbox Live: Some content might be restricted based on regional licensing agreements, but the overall service is quite flexible in terms of accessing games and content across different regions.
- Nintendo Switch: The Nintendo Switch is region-free for physical game cartridges, meaning you can play games from any region on any Switch console. However, digital content from the Nintendo eShop is region-locked.
- Nintendo eShop: You can change your eShop region in the settings, but you will need a valid payment method for that region, and some content might not be available in all regions.
While the consoles themselves may be region-free, allowing you to play games from any region, the online services, DLC, and other digital content can still be subject to regional restrictions based on licensing agreements. It’s also important to note that some features and services might be restricted in certain countries due to legal or regulatory reasons.
If you're considering purchasing games from different regions, it's always a good idea to check the compatibility of any additional content you might want, such as DLC, and to be aware of the potential for region-specific limitations on online services and features.
