http://store.steampowered.com/app/234670/ I know this game is cheaper in Russia, So I have a close friend there who could buy the game using my account so it'll directly go to my library.. My question is would the game be playable? Dark Souls 2 has a similar lock, does someone has experience with this type of region lock? Are the games playable out of Russia after being added to your library. Because if its not playable steam explicitly states the same on the store page,example Metal Gear Rising Revengeance.

REGION LOCK STATES=
Notice: Purchases made in Russian Federation can only be added to your library if you are in Armenia, Azerbaijan, Belarus, Georgia, Kyrgyzstan, Kazakhstan, Republic of Moldova, Russian Federation, Tajikistan, Turkmenistan, Ukraine and Uzbekistan.

Please Help,I want the preorder bonuses so need to preorder it.

Well, Valve says it's illegal. You would have to go to court and fight against it.

And since they have better lawyers, you'd probably lose.

" Purchases made in Russian Federation can only be added to your library if you are in Armenia, Azerbaijan, Belarus, Georgia, Kyrgyzstan, Kazakhstan, Republic of Moldova, Russian Federation, Tajikistan, Turkmenistan, Ukraine and Uzbekistan. " If you are in one of these states then yes,if not no cuz you won't be able to play it.

If you add it to your library somehow, you will be able to play, game itself is ROW, but activation is blocked.

Game activation is region locked, game it self is not, yes I checked it on SteamDB.

Edit:

Notice: Purchases made in Russia and CIS countries will only be playable in Russia and CIS countries.

Seems you're late to buy this game, when it released you could activate a RU copy with VPN or ask a friend and game remained ROW, but not anymore, seems they saw ppl getting the game cheaper and blocked this too.

a no sorry:

All I said about "Notice: Purchases made in Russia and CIS countries will only be playable in Russia and CIS countries." was for "NARUTO SHIPPUDEN: Ultimate Ninja STORM 3 Full Burst"

The "NARUTO SHIPPUDEN: Ultimate Ninja STORM Revolution" says:
"Notice: Purchases made in Russian Federation can only be added to your library if you are in Armenia, Azerbaijan, Belarus, Georgia, Kyrgyzstan, Kazakhstan, Republic of Moldova, Russian Federation, Tajikistan, Turkmenistan, Ukraine and Uzbekistan."

Nothing about game itself being region lock. This means game it self is ROW but activation is blocked, and in first Naruto game activation and play both are blocked, but I don't recommend you using VPN to activate this last Naruto game.

Just check youself add ?cc=ru to the link like this:
NARUTO SHIPPUDEN: Ultimate Ninja STORM 3 Full Burst http://store.steampowered.com/app/234670/?cc=ru
NARUTO SHIPPUDEN: Ultimate Ninja STORM Revolution http://store.steampowered.com/app/272510/?cc=ru

I know what the page says,thank you. And no I won't use VPN. I have a friend in Russia who'll either buy from my account or activate the gift copy in my account there.
