my friend gifted me a game.

how can i redeem the code for the game

my friend gifted me a game but he is in uk an im in us

The short answer: you cant

The long answer: gifting is region locked (something your friend would have gotten a warning about before completing the purchase) so a friend with an account in one country would only be able to gift to other friends with an account in the same country.

Your friend would have to request a refund from their end.

I checked the order history on my acount and it does not show red dead online the game that my

friend gifted me on my birthday but I did not make the transaction my friend gifted it to me but I says I don't own it

Both , my friend got gifted Battlefield 5 and he is game sharing with me.

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.

Is there a way people can gift from overseas or no becuase my friend gifted me a game overseas and i feel bad becuase he spent 60$ on the game to give it to me and it wont redeem just because he lives in a austria
