To redeem a region-locked code on PS5, you'll need to create a PSN account that matches the code’s region, as codes are typically locked to the region they were issued in. First, go to 'Settings' > 'Users and Accounts'. Select 'Account' > 'Payment and Subscriptions' > 'Redeem Codes'. Before entering your code, ensure your PS5 account region matches the code's. If it doesn't, create a new account with the correct region by going to the Sony Entertainment website, then follow these steps again. Note: Using a VPN is against Sony's terms of service and is not recommended.
