    COD Cold War - Says I dont own the game when I do


    Ok so I am affected by the black screen issue in COD Cold War. I can do the workaround but when I finally get to the load screen it tells me that I have to purchase the game. Ive owned it since it dropped. I am sure this is related to the main problem of the game not loading in the first place. Any idea? Im not paying twice for a game that hasnt fixed a major issue in a week.

    :)

    COD Cold War - Says I dont own the game when I do

    Hi,

    I am sorry that you are facing this issue and i would like to help you out of it!

    I have found this:

    1. Go to your library and hover over game
    2. Click on see game in store. (pressing the start button or w/e it's called)
    3. Click on manage (you own this)
    4. From there you'll see 0 out of XX not installed
    5. Either manually select all of them or just click select all
    6. Then install
    7. Open game back up.
    Keeping it simple you're just reinstalling the game without uninstalling it technically. Hopefully that helps.

    Greetings

    Please double check your Microsoft account order history here:
    https://account.microsoft.com/billing/orders

    Are you able to see this transaction with order status completed?
    If that's the case, please do this in your Xbox:

    First uninstall the game, then:
    1. Turn off your console by pressing the Xbox button on the front of the console for about 10 seconds, until it shuts down completely.
    2. Unplug the console's power cable from the console and from the power outlet. Wait 5 minutes.
    Important: Be sure to wait at least 5 minutes. This step resets the power supply.
    3. Plug the console power cable back in.
    4. Press the Xbox button on your console to turn it on.

    After that, try to remove and re-add your profile on the console.

    In case you need it, here's how to remove and re-add:

    Also disconnect your router from power for about 3 minutes. Then connect it again an when everything is working, try again

    Let me know how it goes

    I bought the game and it says I have to buy it again

    I have the same issue. I preordered Cold War in September and played the Beta. I’ve been playing since the game came out and randomly last night, it says i cant play because i dont have the game. I then go to microsoft store and it says i already own the
    game and “launch game”. When i click that it still says i cant play because i dont own it. Pretty annoying
