    How can I get my game back?


    I’m just going to start off with I bought call of duty blacks ops 3 digitally in the past I’ve also owned the disc and that got lost which is the reason I bought it digitally. Either way I got a new Xbox series x from my friend for my birthday and one of the first games I tried to download again was black ops 3. My question is how am I supposed to download my game back? I went to the Microsoft store to download it and it’s trying to make me pay for all the dlcs I already bought and own still. I downloaded all of my dlcs but still won’t let me download my game. Idk if it’s because the option of buying the game alone was Taken away cause that is what I did originally I bought the game alone considering I already bought the dlcs in the past but now I can’t play my game that I have bought if someone could please get back to me about this that would be great

    :)

    How can I get my purchased games back?

    I already tried to challenge(?) the suspension, but got the quoted mail:

    "This account was suspended for fraudulent acquisition or use of Xbox Live content. ..." in my first post

    I understand, that you as the support team cannot help me directly, but I am clueless, since my challenged suspension did not work.

    I thank you for your answer, but I am just disappointed in the Microsoft Support for not having any working options for hacked accounts.

    Sorry for my bad english, I am trying my very best ;)

    Hello Christoph Gretenkort

    Welcome to Xbox Community Forum. Thank you for sharing your concern with us today and we hope that all is well.

    I can see that you need assistance in recovering your game for an account that was hacked.

    Here is what you need to do if you think you are being hacked.

    Secure your account if you think you’ve been hacked | Xbox Support

    If you think your account has been hacked - Microsoft Community

    Recover your account

    Help with the Microsoft account recovery form
    Help with the Microsoft account recovery form - Microsoft Support

    I would like to inform you at the beginning that Microsoft account recovery is managed by a completely automated server, and we do not have manual access to it. Microsoft takes the security and privacy of our customers very seriously. We are committed to protecting your personal information, and the meticulous account recovery process is intended to protect you from any possible malicious activity. For now, please allow me to do the best I can in helping you with the process.

    Why this is important?

    Because you cannot transfer games from one account to another, your Xbox account and the Original Microsoft account are forever tied together. So, it is impossible to recover your games if you cannot recover your Microsoft Account.

    We look forward to your response. Kindly let us know, if there is any misunderstanding or clarifications of our description by sending us a reply.

    What we can do or recommend on our end as Community Moderators is for you to file case review via on this link How to submit a case review | Xbox Support. We would highly suggest for you to enter details as comprehensive as possible so that the team who handles this form will be able to assist and take action.

    For additional details and to know more about banned/enforcement, kindly refer to these helpful articles.

    We hope this helps and it is even better to connect with the correct support where you can get dedicated assistance, the experts there will provide accurate answers for you.
