Minecraft Xbox one edition disc not installing

Minecraft Xbox one edition won't install from disc or launch

Ok, just found this thread from the Minecraft forums. Apparently because the game is an Arcade game it cannot be installed and must be played from the disc.

I found this thread on the Minecraft forums:

It seems like installing disc-based Xbox Live Arcade games is not a supported feature, and that would be why you cannot install it. The games need to be run off the disc.

Hello KC,

Sorry for the issue with your saves. The only way to play Minecraft Xbox one edition is by disc. You can check it out here on the

Minecraft updates and versions.

Note To play Minecraft: Xbox One Edition from a disc, you’ll need to install it while in offline mode on your Xbox One. Once the installation is complete, launch the game before connecting to Xbox Live again. You’ll be able to play
Minecraft: Xbox One Edition from that disc going forward, whether you are online or offline.

Once you do that you can than load your 360 save files to the Xbox one edition.

Thanks,

Brad

Hi MQ,

Thanks for responding and no worries on simple questions...ask away.

Yes, I have the disc in the console at all times since it is the only disc version game we have and I don't think it lets you play the game without it being inserted. (if there's a way, I would be interested to know)

After inspecting the disc and case it came with, I do see that both the disc and the cover state "Minecraft Favorites Edition". I don't see any type of extra code on the case or disc.

Also, before the game is installed it will show an icon for "Minecraft Favorites Edition", but once it is installed it will show as "Minecraft For Xbox One". If I go to the store via the xbox console, I can see both versions of Minecraft side by side and
the "Minecraft For Xbox One" shows as "Installed" and the "Minecraft Favorites Edition" shows a $29 price which tells me that it is not registering properly during or after the install.
