Game pass for pc - Some games not showing as free

jkasapi · Jan 6, 2021

Hi, I've got game pass ultimate but theres a few games that were added that for some reason in the windows store, only show up with "Buy" instead of install now like game pass games should do. Never noticed in the past, a few of the games that don't allow
me to install without buying are: Infinifactory, Talos Principle, Pathalogic 2, The Turing Test.

Any help would be appreciated! Thanks

:)

Those games are not currently part of Game Pass. The Talos Principle was removed in November and the others left in December.

Just realised what I read was Dec 2019 lol okay then thanks. They still appear on the store under game pass annoyingly!

Use the Microsoft Store app. The Xbox app is showing Game Pass games and Minecraft is not available through Game Pass for PC which is why it's not showing.

Some games can be purchased on the console and redownloaded for free on the PC because they are Play Anywhere titles. Unfortunately Minecraft is not one of those. https://www.xbox.com/en-US/games/xbox-play-anywhere Some games may also just be part of the Game Pass you purchased .

That game is available with Game Pass for PC which is included in Game Pass Ultimate. So it should be free. Is that the only game not showing as available?

on the pc game pass version i use it say's "check for updates" I've checked all dates of my games it has not changed the date of last update it only shows game install date. some go back to months or more on pc game pass.

my twin Xboxes get auto updates all the time correctly. the Xbox games pass on them is ok. which shows me there is a pc game pass failure to update problem.
