Are American/EU versions of Watch Dogs cross-region tradable?

Closed

Some say yes, others say no. Can CIS users get ROW Watch Dogs?

There are ROW and RU version I believe only, if buying keys, don't know about gifts. ROW can be activated everywhere, this was always like this, why would you need ROW if living in RU/CIS region?

That's probably South America restriction.

Shouldn't affect US/EU bought games. Shouldn't...

Uplay has language lock and forces independent CIS countries to play with Russian language. I dont want Russian, I want English.

AllowCrossRegionTradingAndGifting – false

Allow me to elaborate on that:

if you buy this game from SA (South America), you can only gift/trade with other SA users
if you buy this game from NA (North America), you can only gift/trade with other NA users
if you buy this game from EU (Europe), you can only gift/trade with other EU users

All versions (SubIDs) of the game are ROW no matter the store you buy it from.

if you buy this game from NA (North America), you can only gift/trade with other NA users
if you buy this game from EU (Europe), you can only gift/trade with other EU users

Source for these? So far it has only affected Russia/Asia/Brazil.

Source for AllowCrossRegionTradingAndGifting affecting EU/NA.
This isn't case with other games using AllowCrossRegionTradingAndGifting.
