How to redeem it on Xbox
- On your Xbox, press the Xbox button and open Store.
- Press the View button and choose Redeem.
- Enter the 25-character code and follow the prompts.
Or in a browser: xbox.com/redeem
Xbox says a code has to match your Microsoft account's country or region, and that using a VPN to get round it can get a purchase reversed or the account restricted.
From Xbox's help pages, read 23 October 2026:
Regions, in the shops' words
- UK
- Sold for UK accounts: the one word that plainly meets PlayStation's and Xbox's rule that a code match your account's country.
- Europe, EU, EU & UK, EMEA
- Sold for Europe, and the shops' pages I checked say these activate on UK accounts. The platforms don't name the UK: Nintendo UK says to use a code meant for Europe, and PlayStation's terms ask for one from your account's country.
- Region not stated
- The listing names no region. At ShopTo, CJS CD Keys and Kinguin, the shop's own terms or every page I checked say these work on UK accounts; at Keycense they vary, so theirs never set a price here.
No platform defines these words: each is the shop's, so check the region on its page before you buy.

On Xbox, from £8.86 with the £1.76 fee its feed gives at Kinguin (key, plus fees at checkout); on Steam, from £22.94 at CJS CD Keys (key, no checkout fees); on PlayStation, from £29.09 at CJS CD Keys (key, no checkout fees); on Microsoft Store, from £9.30 with the £1.83 fee its feed gives at Kinguin (key, plus fees at checkout). Prices checked 14 November 2026.
Can I buy Age of Empires II: Definitive Edition from an official store?
Not now at the official stores I check: only key shops have it in stock, and each row says which region its key is for.
Will a Age of Empires II: Definitive Edition key work on a UK account?
The prices I lead with are only from offers their shop says work on a UK account. Xbox says a code has to match your Microsoft account's country or region, and that using a VPN to get round it can get a purchase reversed or the account restricted. Steam leaves region limits to each game's publisher. If a key won't activate, the shop you bought it from handles it: Steam doesn't refund keys bought elsewhere. PlayStation's UK terms say a code works only on an account registered in the country the code is for, and its help pages say an account's region can't be changed. Microsoft says games got in one country or region might not work in another, and Xbox asks that your Microsoft account's region match where you live. If you bought the wrong code, Microsoft says to contact the shop. 2 listings name no region at a shop whose listings like that vary, so check the region on its page.
How do I redeem Age of Empires II: Definitive Edition?
Xbox codes are redeemed on your console or at xbox.com/redeem, and the game stays on your Microsoft account. A Steam key goes into the Steam app (Games, then Activate a Product on Steam) or Steam's website, and the game stays in your library. PlayStation codes are redeemed on your console or in PlayStation Store online, and only work on an account from the region they were sold for.
