Can't download games on Microsoft Store, or download Xbox Game Pass for PC app

Are you downloading from the Microsoft Store app? If so, try downloading from the Xbox app (not the console companion app) instead. If you don't have that app downloaded, you can download it at https://www.xbox.com/xbox-game-pass/pc-games?xr=shellnav

When you go to the game page on Microsoft Store or Xbox App to download it you can't download it? It shows you to buy game pass or buy the game?

Hello Avian,

When you want a game from the game pass for PC, you need to go through the game pass for PC or the Microsoft store to download the games. They will not download from the app or console companion. Here is the

game pass for PC FAQ.

Thanks,

Brad

Game Pass Ultimate includes Game Pass for PC. So yes, it can be used. Are you trying to download the games through the Xbox app or Microsoft store app?

Also, keep in kind that Game Pass for PC does not have the same amount of games Game Pass for console has, so if you'll want to make sure you're downloading games that are included.

There are two apps on your PC that you could, technically download games and app.

There's the Microsoft Store app, there, you could download apps and some games, and the Xbox app, that you use for the Game Pass subscription games, or even those you purchased.
