    Umm Pakistan isn't even an xbox live region but yes xbox one games are region free but you still have to buy in region games can't be gifted from other regions since gifting is region locked

    With mcc you cannot buy a disk as most of the content is online

    Yeah, but then what is the point of gifting games? The idea is if my friend in the US is lacking funds and I want him to be able to play that game with me I should be able to gift him the digital copy there and then.

    Hello BayUniform,

    Thank you for posting here on the Xbox forums. Unfortunately, I haven't found any sort of news regarding this type of feature. Any news would be able to be found here :
    Xbox News

    I apologize that we wouldn't be able to give you an answer on whether or not it is being worked on. However, you can post this as an idea to hopefully get implemented in a future update :
