    Problemas al momento de instalar juegos de Xbox Game Pass. [Translation-Problems when installing Xbox Game Pass games.]

    Hi there!

    Thank you for posting on the forums, I'd be happy to help.

    The issue is that the games you are trying to download from the Xbox Game Pass subscription to your PC are only available for Xbox One so the message is correct in that you are trying to start a remote installation to an Xbox One that you do not own. PUBG
    is only available for Xbox One through the Microsoft Store. You will have to buy and play PUBG on PC using a different platform, like Steam. All of the other games on the picture that doesn't let you download on PC is because they are only available on Xbox
    One. The only ones available to install from the Game Pass on PC are games that are available for purchase on PC through the Microsoft Store. Every product has a tag that says "Available On" and it will say what platform the game is available for through the
    Microsoft Store.

    Games that you downloaded from the Game Pass won't be in your library but rather a specific section for Game Pass games.

    I hope this clears things up and let us know if you have any other questions.

    Some games that are supposed to show up on Game Pass PC don't exist in my Xbox App.

    I just tried installing Hollow Knight since it's PC only and it launched the Hollow Knight page on my Xbox App but while on the website it says "INSTALL TO included with Game Pass" in the app it says not available. Oh and also Back 4 Blood is nowhere to be found in my Xbox app.

    pc game pass

    Game Pass for PC is pretty much on a par with Game Pass for console. Yeah, some games will be different, as some games for PC are not available for console, and vice versa.

    I have Xbox GamePass Ultimate, but Xbox App on PC only recognizes the standard GamePass

    Ultimate is just a bundled subscription of Gold, Game Pass for console, and Game Pass for PC. It doesn't change what games are available on Game Pass. Doom Eternal is available with Game Pass for PC.
