    Games say they're trials when downloaded after gold live activation


    Hi. This weekend I bought an Xbox One S. I signed up for Xbox gold live the next day. I then downloaded Warhammer Vermintide as well as Astroneer. They were both offered as free games with gold live. Yesterday I launched both for the first time and they
    both tell me it's a trial version and I have 2 hours left of the trial. My brother also downloaded the same games and his do not mention they're trials, they launch as a normal full version game would. He's had his Xbox for months as well as the gold membership.
    I verified the membership to gold live is active. Anyone come across this or have an idea? All I can think to do is uninstall them and reinstall them to see if it somehow isn't seeing my gold membership?

    Thanks!

    :)

    Games with gold. Live Trial

    Activated the 2 Week Xbox Live Trial and downloaded the Deer God I could get Tomb Raider for free to. I thought free games with gold only worked with Paid Subscriptions

    You'll be locked out of them after 2 weeks.

    Trial Stopped Working?!

    Maybe your trial has run out.

    You have to have an active xbox live gold subscription to download & play games with gold,you can't download them on a trial.

    Are there any gold accounts on your console?

    Xbox Live Gold Membership and Portal

    Hi,

    If you are using an Xbox Live Gold 14-Day Trial you will not be able to download these games as it would require having an active 1 Month Gold membership (minimum 1 month of Gold) for you to be able to download the titles available through Games With Gold.

    Happy Gaming!
