Why Is Turkey Cheaper?
PlayStation Store prices are set by Sony for each region individually, based on local purchasing power. The Turkish lira is historically weak against the dollar and euro, so Sony sets prices in TL that are significantly lower in terms of hard currencies.

FAQ
Won't Sony raise prices in Turkey?
Sony periodically revises regional pricing. Turkish prices were adjusted in 2023–2025 but remain below EU/US levels. Monitor for changes.
Is it legal to buy games in a different PSN region?
PlayStation Network allows accounts from different regions. Sony does not ban for this — you are simply using the region you registered in.
Do Turkish Store games work on my main account?
A purchased game is tied to the account that bought it. If the Turkish account is set as Primary on the console, other users on that console can play those games.
