    Bought game, only a preview?


    We recently bought an Xbox one for my little brother and he really wanted astroneer, so temporarily we got him the preview.

    Today we decided to buy it for him but once we bought it all that appeared in our "games and apps" menu was the preview. If we go back to the store and search astroneer up the full game doesnt appear, only the preview. I haven't found any similar problems
    online, help would be appreciated.

    :)

    Hacker bought a game?

    First of all, you might want to go to https://account.live.com and change your password.

    Then further down the page, enable Two Step Verification and set up the free Authenticator app on your smartphone.

    With Two Step Verification enabled, a hacker would have to actually physically steal your phone as well as your new password to get into your account. With the Authenticator app, a hacker couldn't get into your account just with a stolen password.

    After you made your account hacking- and theft-proof, you can try to contact the official support at
    Contact Us | Xbox Support and ask if they can refund that unauthorized purchase.

  3. Accidently bought a game

    Once you click Confirm Purchase, the transaction is complete regardless if the download completes. If a game was bought by accident you might be able to contact Microsoft Support to see what your refund options are but typically the purchase disclaimer specifically
    states "No Refunds for this item"

    Bought game, only a preview?

    The game is only in preview mode right now. The full game has not been released yet. Since you purchased the preview, you will receive the full game once it is released.

    I should,ve mentioned, in the preview we couldn't save the game, buying it was supposed to unlock the full game. It still doesn't save, nothings changed.

    Preview customer- missing licenses

    You say you were a preview member?

    If that's the case any games bought while in the preview are only playable on a console still in the preview program at the moment until the new update is released to the public.

    Preview Program Stole My Money, Can't Get Content

    There is an issue at the moment with the latest build.As Code Monkie said,any games bought while on the latest build of the dash/preview will only work on consoles in the preview program.

    I'm a Xbox preview user and game share isn't working

    Any games bought on a console in the preview program can only be played on consoles with the preview dash at the moment so if your brothers console isn't in the preview they won show up.

    Any other questions then it's best to check/post in the preview forums
