  1. Games installed through Game Pass will not launch


    I have been playing Wasteland 3 on Games Pass. Yesterday the game worked fine. My laptop updated its firmware this evening and no none of the games I installed will launch. When I say will not launch I mean that I click the play button and nothing happens.
    I try to launch from start menu and again nothing happens.

    The games that I have installed with Steam all work correctly so it must be an xbox issue.

    I originally thought that it was because my daughter was playing Minecraft on my Xbox using my gamertag but she is in bed now and they still will not launch.

    I have tried repairing and resetting the app again without success.

    This is incredibly frustrating!!

    :)

    EA Play: "Your game failed to launch." SOLVED.

    Same problem. Downloaded NFS Heat through EA Play App linked to my Game Pass Ultimate account. Installed fine but fails to launch every time.

    xbox game pass

    Hello YazanMan,

    Games downloaded through the Game Pass will remain installed on the console, but the subscription would be needed
    to have the ability of launching the game.

    It will require payment for the game or having the membership on the account.

    Have a look through the linked FAQ and let us know if this was helpful.

    Best wishes!
