Just be sure to have the account active..you don't even have to log on to the shared account unless you want to download game/dlc.


I think you are right about this, I will have another look at it soon. After all; if it works for so many people without flaws I can’t see any reason why it shouldn’t work for me.
I also have multiple accounts for different regions so I will give another go Smile

Games are NOT region-locked on PS3/PS4 consoles, you can play a chinese game in the USA or whatever game you want lol.
The only thing(s) that are region locked are DLC content. (For example if someone you know bought a game and its DLC in Europe, only the game would work for you, not the DLCs).

But in your case, your friend will be able to play your games AND DLCs as well in Canada, because the two contries are in the same region, North America.

Thank you so much for the answer.

I have tried it a few times with someone from the USA and my region is EU.
Didn’t work both ways so I am not entirely sure, could also have been a network problem :confused:

yeah he has to have the acc activated and you need to have it activate it also or play on your own acc
