    I was wondering if I signed up for Xbox Game Pass on PC will it only work on PC in otherwords I have some games that are in Game Pass but I have the physical versions of those games as well installed on my Xbox One what I want to know will I still be able
    to use those physical versions on my Xbox One. Also while I am here what if I purchase them all through the Microsoft Store on my PC & I install them on my PC will they automaticaly unlock the digital versions of those games on Xbox One or would I have to
    tell the store to install them on my Xbox One for the Digital versions to automaticaly on my Xbox One I hope some one understands the question as I dont want to lose the Physical versions of some games but I want to play them on my PC. By the way the Games
    I am refering to are Recore,Forza Horizon 3,Forza Horizon 4,Forza Motorsport 7,Sea Of Theives & Sunst Overdrive. Obviously the first 2 games in the list are only purchaseable on PC but the other 4 are included in Xbox Game Pass.

    :)

    No, if you have the disc and content associated with purchasing the game physically, you'll keep those rights as long as you still have and use the disc.

    Just to try and get an understanding of the question and what you're looking for, is there a reason why you believed you might loose access to playing a disc version of a game if subscribed to the service?

    To define a few things:

    Xbox Play Anywhere: Titles that, once purchase, claimed, or in a service you subscribe, can be played on Xbox One and Windows 10, sharing save data and achievement progress.

    Xbox Game Pass: Sub lets you play a set of games in the service, and if titles in Game Pass are Play Anywhere, you can play those on Windows 10 as well

    Xbox Game Pass for PC: More details are coming later, but it will include a set of games that you can play as part of the service on Windows 10. Not defined if this will be a separate subscription, or part of Xbox Live Ultimate. More details should be
    announced today.

    Disc based games: as long as the title is installed and the disc is inserted, you'll be able to play that game, regardless of services and subscriptions (save Xbox Live Gold and playing online, you'll need Gold to play online on Console), but owning the
    disc that's in a service, either Game Pass or Play Anywhere, does not make it eligible to play on either/or platform, disc will only allow you to play on the platform the purchase was for.

    I hope this clarifies and answers what you're looking for.

    So what you are saying is whether I purchase these games or sub to Game Pass I will lose all functionality to the disc based versions of these games.

    A disc is a disc and only lets you play the disc version of that game on the platform for which you buy it, so if you're buying a physical disc of a PC game, then it's NOT a Windows 10 Play Anywhere title. That designation is for digital purchases only.
    So if you're not buying digital, then you don't have to worry about that.

    Regardless of that, if you purchased a disc copy and a digital copy, then it's not going to stop you from playing either. You can play the game digitally w/o the disc, or you could take the disc, install it and still play it. It's not going to lock you
    out of anything.

    I wonder if someone would be able to answer this question

    I thought that if you have games on Xbox One that are on disc & they are play anywhere titles that are only digital on PC & you purchase them on PC which I want to do the use of the disc becomes redundent on Xbox One as you automaticaly unlock the digital
    version of those games on Xbox One which I dont want to do as I am more of a lover of physical games. Or can I choose if I want to unlock the digital version of play anywhere titles on Xbox One.
