Bit of a weird situation.

I was gifted a game through HumbleBundle. He bought the game, checked the "purchase as gift" and typed in my email. I received it, clicked on it, linked my Steam account and tried to redeem but I can't because we live in different countries.

Can I gift this key to someone else? My friend already has this game and Humble is seemingly refusing to grant him a refund so we don't know what to do.

EDIT: Just to make sure because apparently there is a different. The game was Monster Hunter Wilds and it was bought in the Humble Store. Does that change things?

Ok, if you have the key you can gift to someone else, but verify the region restrictions.

If is a key from humble bundle, probably choice, you can search it in discussion and verifi the restrictrion.

Yeah it is from Hunble Bundle. He lives in the US and I live in a different country so I assume the key is US only?

Even if I tried to redeem the key myself and Steam says I can't, I can just give the code to someone else just fine?

If you post the name of the game and which Humble Bundle it was from, theres a good chance someone here can tell you region restrictions for that game.

Yeah we were not aware of this restriction at all. I guess he didn't notice it when he was about to buy and we got into this situation. I have another friend who I can gift it to and he is fine with it also so its fine.

I'm currently on the Fanatical bundle boat for gifting. A lot less region headaches than Humble... so far...
