A PlayStation account’s country can’t be changed after it is created, and voucher codes must match it

Sony says an account’s country or region can’t be changed once the account exists, that content in the PlayStation Store varies by country, and that voucher codes and the account’s country must match to be activated. Rockstar Support gives the same advice for GTA 6: buy PlayStation codes in the same country as your account.

Reliable source

GTA 6 had about 6.92 million pre-orders after the week starting October 20, 2026

This is an estimate by the research firm Sensor Tower. Its weekly tracker, reported by GTAVice.net on October 27, counted 470,000 new pre-orders that week, with a split of 74% PlayStation and 26% Xbox. By October 20 the firm had estimated 6.45 million pre-orders worth $630 million (Insider Gaming), and in August 4.38 million and $429 million. Take-Two calls pre-orders unprecedented but hasn’t published a figure.
