It seems like they don't lock anyone from redeeming keys purchased from third party retailers such as this site. So if you bought the key legally (not russian key) you don't have to use VPN/proxy to redeem the key on Steam and that means you're not violating anything in Steam ToS so you'll be fine.
Hi Enid, First of all there is no region lock on this game so you can breathe easy. Secondly if a game is region locked and you try to activate it, you simple get an error message saying that the game is not available in your region and you won't be able to use the key. So there's no need for concern :)
Actually, Nier Automata is region locked for several Asian countries: the entire South East Asia region, Hong Kong, Taiwan, Korea, and China. That's why people keep asking you guys this same question.
i don't know about that,but i heard that people get steam-banned(or steam retrive the key) cause they bought the key from wrong region and tried to activate it ..
so if the key isn't for this region, player cannot activate it ??
This never happens... put simply - you heard wrong ;) If a game is region locked for example to Europe and you try to activate from the US, it just won't work. But for this game there is no region lock.
