    Cannot access my own game library


    Why can I not play the games installed to my console if I am not logged into Xbox Live? I can sign into my account on the console but when I go to the game library, it is empty of any games that are digital downloads. I have tried this multiple times, both with signing in with internet then disconnecting it from the internet and the games will vanish from the library. Why does the Xbox One console require an internet connection to play games that I have purchased? At full price might I add, not sale prices. The Xbox 360 never had this issue: no internet = no problem, play any game you purchased. Why does Xbox One require internet access to play installed games?

    :)

    Cannot access my own game library

    The console is set as My Home Xbox but it still will not let me access my own game library when not connected to the internet.

    Do you have the console set as your Home console?

    It actually works the same way the 360 did. You need a console license on the console to be able to play the games offline. The Home setting is what tells the console you have that license. Without the Home setting, your account has to be signed in so the system can check the servers to make sure you have a license to play the games.

    Games not showing up in full library

    I know whats happened and it stupid. All old gen games from 360 and Original Xbox dont show anymore, and can only be found in store. And any games that you do own, if they are in Games Pass, games with Gold or EA access they dont show in your library only
    the library applicable to them. I had over 100 games in my library before a load of them being 360 titles. But no theyre gone, and some Xbox one games that i own dont show because theyre on the games pass. It waiting for xbox to fix the issue.

    xbox oneの利用コードについて

    Sorry to hear it. Once a code is redeemed it cannot be used again and the item is tied to that account. To redownload the game go to My Games & Apps>Full Library>All Owned Games to see any game that you've purchased on your account

    Xbox games

    Hi Matthew,

    Thanks for reaching out to the forums. We understand you are trying to access games to be installed. From the home screen go down to my games and apps>then go to full library. All games are in categories here. Any games you own or sharing will show in all
    games owned.

    Thanks,

    Brad
