At last the game became backward compatible and I wanted to buy it. I was trying to buy it on Xbox.com but MS response was something like: Sorry, we can't complete the action right now. After that I went to amazon and bought the digital prepaid code there. When trying to redeem the code the error occurs:

Something went wrong
Give it another try. If this happens again, let us know by entering the code below at xbox.com/errorhelp so we can investigate.

Is the game region locked?! Can I play it somehow if I already have the code?

Best Answer

There are other things you can try:

  1. Redeem the code online (and not via the Xbox): https://account.xbox.com/en-US/paymentandbilling/redeemcode (also, try changing the "en-US" to the Georgia region equivalent)
  2. Create a new account that is set to Georgia, and again attempt to redeem the code
  3. Create a new account that is set to US, and again attempt to redeem the code
  4. Obtain a physical copy of the game (and attempt to get a refund via Amazon) - the physical copy will allow you to play via Xbox One

Note that options 2/3 may mean that you must use the new account to play the game. Furthermore, you may need a separate gold subscription if you wish to play the online elements of the game on the account.

Can you get laid in Red Dead Redemption?

While prostitution is a staple of sorts in Rockstar's Grand Theft Auto series, it isn't too relevant in Red Dead Redemption 2. While in GTA, players are free to pay prostitutes for sex and other sexual activities, that hasn't been allowed in the Red Dead games and Red Dead 2 is no different.
