Will FFXVI be region-locked? (self.gaming)

I’m in Europe at the moment, and will be when Final Fantasy 16 releases. If I buy a physical PS5 edition in Greece, will I be able to play it in New Zealand? Are PS5 games never region-locked, or is it up to publisher discretion?

It shouldn't be region locked. How good was the demo though? 😃

Thank you! The demo looks epic 😃

Are region-locks still a thing?

Can't you just buy it once you get back?

The game is not going anywhere

I assumed it would be cheaper over here—but it appears that Europe has it even worse than NZ for inflated game prices!
