FAQs & Answers

  1. Can I use a PSN code from any country on my regular PSN account? No, PSN codes are region-locked, so to redeem a code from another country, you need to create a new PSN account registered in that country.
  2. How do I create a PSN account for a different country? When creating a new PlayStation Network account, select the country that matches the region of your PSN code and use a different email address than your main account.
  3. Will content redeemed on a foreign PSN account be available on my main account? Content redeemed is tied to the account on which it was redeemed, so it will only be available in that account's library.
  4. Are there any restrictions when using a foreign PSN account on PlayStation consoles? You can switch between accounts on your console to access different regional content, but some services or content may require being logged into the specific regional account.
