Gears 5 doesn’t start on xbox series x

Hi, Manuel. I hope you're doing well and safe out there. I'm an Independent Advisor and I’m happy to help you today.

Can you play other games normally on your Xbox? Kindly turn off your console by pressing the Xbox button on the front of the console for about 10 seconds, until it shuts down completely. Unplug the console's power cable. Wait 10 seconds and then plug the console power cable back in. Press the Xbox button on your console to turn it on then try launching your game again.

Hello Todd,

Thank you for posting in Microsoft Community.

To play Gears of War 2 split screen on the Xbox Series X with a guest account, try the following steps:



1. Connect a second controller to your Xbox Series X.

2. Launch Gears of War 2.

3. Press the start button on the second controller to sign in as a guest account.

4. Once the guest account is signed in, press the start button on the first controller to start the game.

5. From the main menu, select "Campaign" or "Horde" mode.

6. Once you have selected your game mode, press the start button on the second controller to join the game as a split-screen player.



That's it! You should now be able to play Gears of War 2 split screen on your Xbox Series X with a guest account.

Sincerely,

Yes it detects there is a disc inside it just doesn’t start installing

Does the same with movies

It’s just the games that say Xbox one the games that say Xbox series x and Xbox one starts installing right away

Not Receiving any error codes

Microsoft introduces "Smart Delivery" with the Xbox Series X, which means, that if you own an existing game (like Minecraft in your example, or Gears 5) or a new game comes out for Xbox One and Xbox Series X with improved graphics on Series X, you won't
have to buy the game twice.

With Smart Delivery you will play the "enhanced" version on Series X, and the "normal" version on Xbox One.

For more info about Smart Delivery and other terms used with the Series X check this page: https://news.xbox.com/en-us/2020/03/16/xbox-series-x-glossary/

I FOUND 4 DIFFERENT XBOX ONE X CONSOLES ON SMILE.AMAZON.COM. WHICH ONE DO YOU THINK I SHOULD CHOOSE?

- XBOX ONE X, WHITE LIMITED EDITION WITH ONE CONTROLLER

- XBOX ONE X, BLACK COLOR CONSOLE BUNDLE TOM CLANCY'S THE DIVISION 2

- XBOX ONE X, WHITE LIMITED EDITION CONSOLE BUNDLE WITH FALLOUT 76

- XBOX ONE X, GEARS 5 LIMITED EDITION WITH GEARS OF WAR GAMES 1-5

🤔🤔🤔

I might be a bit biased with my LOVE of the Gears of War series, but I definitely vote the Gears 5 Limited Edition console. The console is absolutely stunning gorgeous and the limited edition controller it comes with matches perfectly. Additionally, you
get essentially 5 games as well as a cool skin to use with Kait in Gears 5!
