    Free Games with Gold game now says I have to buy it


    I downloaded Metal Gear Solid V Phantom Pain when it was a Free Games with Gold last may. I no longer have xbox live gold but I recently re-downloaded it but now it's saying I have to buy it in order to play. I also just canceled Xbox Game pass,
    and I know MGSV Phantom Pain just got put on xbox game pass. I think the system got confused. Can someone from Microsoft please reply to get this fixed in my account?

    :)

    Free Games with Gold game now says I have to buy it

    If the game is for the Xbox One then you can't play it without Gold.

    In order to play games for the Xbox One from Games with Gold you'll need an active Xbox Gold subscription, however you don't need one to play games for the Xbox 360 that you have from the program.

    Hope that answers your question.

    Free Games with Gold game now says I have to buy it

    Hello. Thank you for bringing this to the xbox forums. Unfortunately games with gold titles are no longer available on xbox one when you cancel your subscription. However if you decide to renew they will become available as long as
    you downloaded them when they were free with gold. Feel free to check the Games with Gold FAQ for any more questions.

    What happens to my Games with Gold games if I cancel my Xbox Live Gold or Xbox Game Pass Ultimate subscription?

    On Xbox One, you’ll no longer be able to access your Games with Gold titles if you cancel your subscription. However, if you decide to renew your subscription at any time, you’ll be able to access and play your previously
    redeemed Games with Gold titles again.

    On Xbox 360, any Games with Gold titles that you redeem as an Xbox Live Gold or Xbox Game Pass Ultimate member are yours to keep, regardless of whether you continue your subscription.

    Xbox free 1 month trial not working?

    Yeah, there's a game on the store I think Need for Speed Rivals, and says "FREE WITH GOLD" and then I click that which takes me to the buy xbox live gold page.

    I also even try buying the FREE GOLD BONUS games from the store on my PC and says I need to pay $20.

    CANNOT PLAY DOWNLOADED GAMES I PAID FOR BECAUSE OF MICROSOFT TACTICS

    I think the only games that you have to have Live Gold are the monthly free Games with Gold games. When I go on the Xbox store and look at those games it says that I can play the game free for now or I can purchase a copy to own forever.
