I found no region rule for keys on GOG's help pages, so go by the region the shop gives.

From GOG'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.
Global, worldwide, region free
The shop says it activates in any country, the UK included.
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.
