Why a Russian card is declined
Russian bank cards cannot pay for The Dark Pictures Anthology. Visa and Mastercard cards from Russian banks have not worked abroad since 2022, and Mir cards are rarely accepted outside Russia, so the payment is declined.
A P2D dollar card does not depend on Russian banks and works in services that accept Mastercard.
