    Gaming on PC


    I've come to the understanding that i can play certain Xbox games on my pc, but does that mean i have to buy the game for windows aswell as Xbox. Correct me if I am wrong but isn't Forza Horizon 3 one of those games? When i go to the store I don't know where
    to go if I already paid for an Xbox copy of the game and want to download it to my computer. I would appreciate any help!

    :)

    you should check the system requirements of the game and buy a pc with the same or better specs to run it.

    For Play Anywhere games, if you own the digital copy you can download it on the Windows Store for free. You would open the Windows Store app, search for the game, and it should give you the option to download it for free.

    No. There is no code. Try this instead. In the top right of the Windows Store app there is a menu. Go to "My Library" and in your list of games there, you should see all of the games you own digitally. Any that can be downloaded to your PC will have a download
    link.
