Rockstar has confirmed that GTA 6 physical edition codes for PS5 will be region-locked. This means players purchasing physical copies will only be able to redeem codes in their respective regions, restricting cross-region access to any bundled digital content or activation codes included with the disc.
The region-locking applies specifically to the codes packaged with physical versions, a common practice in the gaming industry but one that affects how players can distribute or trade copies internationally. Those looking to play across different regional markets may face limitations depending on where their physical copy originates.
This clarification matters for players anticipating the launch, as it affects purchasing decisions for those buying physical copies internationally or planning to gift copies to friends in different regions.
