    Gold for console

    Xcloud

    EA Play on console

    EA Play on PC later this year.

    Can't play any games on GamePass except the ones on EA Play for PC

    No, They are not. I had GamePass PC earlier and everything used to work properly but then one day I got notification that there is an offer on GamePass Ultimate so I upgraded but since the day GamePass PC subscription ended and GamePass Ultimate subscription started, I can only launch games that are on EA Play and that too from EA Desktop App only.

    Now, because the GamePass Ultimate was a 3 month subscription, so I can't even go back to GamePass PC until it's over.

    Any game that launches from Xbox app for Windows fails to launch and tried repairing and resetting the Xbox and Microsoft Apps, sign-out and then again sign-in on both the apps but still same thing.

    For Example, Forza Horizon 4 used to work earlier but now it does not.

    I have game pass console and any time i try to play multiplayer games it prompts me to purchase ultimate.

    Well no that is not an error you do need ultimate since you are on console

    If you were on pc you would buy gamepass for pc

    Not console but ultimate or gold is needed for multiplayer on console

    Gold is included with ultimate not gamepass

    Gold.nor.ultimate is.needed on pc ONLY gamepass for console only.gives you games not multiplayer

    Hello, Iz_A. Thanks for reaching out! My name is Lucas, and I'm an Independent Advisor and a Microsoft user just like you. I'll be happy to assist you today.

    Do you get this error with any game os just a specific game?

    Are you using Xbox App to download/install/launch your Game Pass Games?

    Are you using Windows 10 or 11?

    GamePass Ultimate on PC. Games do not launch

    If you go to Windows File Explorer (Win + E), can you go to the path it's showing on the error message? C:\Program Files\WindowsApps\..... ?

    Try to change the default location where games are downloaded in Xbox App and try to download/install/run a game then:

    Open Xbox app.

    Click the profile menu in the top-right and select the Settings options.

    Click on General.

    Click the Change folder option.

    Select the new folder location to store Xbox games.

    Click the Select Folder button.

    After you complete the steps, the game files will be stored in the new folder location.

    Try to match the folder with the same folder Microsoft Store uses to install new games:

    Windows-Key --> In Settings - System --> Storage --> See the path "New apps be save to".

    If it still doesn't work, please let me know and we proceed to further troubleshooting.
