    Hi Megatronhalo06,

    Greetings!

    Thank you for publishing in Microsoft Community.

    We understand that you are experiencing an error message when trying to start a cloud gaming session, even though you have an active Game Pass Ultimate subscription. I apologize for the inconvenience this has caused you, but I will do my best to assist you in resolving this issue.



    Firstly, I would like to ask if you have tried signing out and signing back in to your Xbox account on all devices you are trying to access cloud gaming on? This can sometimes help refresh your account and resolve any issues with your subscription.



    If that does not work, I recommend checking if your Game Pass Ultimate subscription is up to date and active. You can do this by logging into your Microsoft account on the Xbox website and checking your subscription status. If your subscription is not active, you may need to renew it or contact Microsoft support for further assistance. Learn more: Microsoft account | Services & subscriptions



    If your subscription is active, but you are still experiencing the error message, I suggest clearing your cache and cookies on your web browser or mobile device. This can help resolve any issues with your device's connection to the cloud gaming service.



    Additionally, you can try resetting your network settings on your device or checking your internet connection to ensure that it is stable and strong enough to support cloud gaming.
