We're under two months out now and I'm stuck in one of those countries where GTA 6 is apparently banned. The hype is real but so is the frustration.

I've got over 2,000 hours in GTA Online on my main account. All my friends, crews, group chats, the whole social side of it is tied to that PSN ID. Starting fresh on a different region account isn't something I want to do, and honestly it shouldn't be the only option.

PlayStation support was painful to reach. When I finally got someone, the answers were super vague. One rep said the base version "maybe" works through game share, another said the Ultimate Edition "might" work. That's not exactly confidence inspiring two months before launch.

Rockstar support has been solid for me over the years with GTA Online and Red Dead Online issues. This time though I've opened around five tickets and every single reply just points me to the GTA 6 FAQ page. No clarification on regional bans, no word on whether a physical disc would bypass any of this, nothing.

I keep hoping they'll drop physical copies or at least give a clear answer on how accounts in banned regions are supposed to handle this. The silence from both sides makes me think the regional policies aren't fully locked in yet, which is wild this close to release.

If anyone else is in the same boat, I'd rather hear what's actually worked than another generic support link. My gut says game share might be the only realistic path, but I'm not risking my main account on a "maybe."
