I Can't download Gears of War 3 with the code that came with my console

hi there

have you tried the following?

make sure that you set your xbox region to where you actually live.

are you using a vpn?

check if the code as not expired (some redeemable content code has expiration dates on them.

if you still have issue you can contact Microsoft support

https://beta.support.xbox.com/contact-us

This seems no longer to be true.

Games purchased from other regions will play if physical disk, but any connected download codes will not work.

There are issues for example with the Gears of War 1-3 codes (included with Gears of War collection) and the Fallout 3 codes (that came with Fallout 4).

Having the same issue with Gears of War 3, I redeemed a code that came with my Xbox One X Gears 5 bundle, I don't even see it on my order history nor do I see the order history for Gears of War 2 but that seems to be fine, only noticed a few minutes ago
when I saw the Game Pass logo on Gears of War 3.

Scooby288, StreetSoldier72:

The Xbox One S console comes with a download code for Gears 4, which should give you the online messages download codes for Gears 1-3.

The fine print on the console says that "to qualify [for Gears of War, Gears of War 2, Gears of War 3 and Gears of War: Judgment] purchase and play Gears of War 4 on Xbox Live by 31 December 2016. Must be 17+" -- Have you played Gears 4 on Xbox Live yet?


If you still don't have any codes, you'll want to talk to Xbox Support. They can be reached at

Hi, sorry for my bad english. I try all my best that you can understand me.

I have 3 Codes:

"Gears of War", "Gears of War 3" and "Gears of War: Judgment".

I just tried to reenter the codes. The "Gears of War 3"-Code and "Gears of War: Judgment"-Code works!

Only the "Gears of War"-Code doesn't work.

I get these Message:

Something went wrong

Sorry about that. Give it a try in a while.
