    If he's gifting it through Xbox, it'll be region locked and won't work. Otherwise, it'll just depend on the code. Some codes are region locked, but not all.

    Pre-order Code for Halo 4 ordered from Amazon doesn't work

    As far as I can see Amazon doesn't actually deliver to India? So I'm assuming here that you've pre-ordered the game and received the code as part of another country ordering from Amazon. If that is the case then yes, that would be correct. Your particular
    country would not be eligible to redeem this code. The code however, is valid for people in a country where this game was meant to be sold to.

    redeeming a code in another country

    Hi Steve,

    Thanks for reaching out to the forums. You can gift to someone is your region. You can also try for a refund on the item if you purchased through the Xbox/Microsoft store.

    Thanks,
