Offline Game Pass/Home Xbox Issues

I’m still running into the same issue. Although I have noticed that some game pass games do run in offline mode. Mass Effect, Bloodroots and others. Forza H5 will not run when my home Xbox is set to offline mode.

If you are in your home xbox, you can even play game pass games offline!

Hi Devils,

Thanks for the update on the issue. Have you changed your home console? If you changed home console to another console and go offline, the games are unable to determine where the home console is. For this to work correctly, the home console will need to
be set on the console you go offline with. Also since you don't technically own the games from game pass it may require you to be connected to show they on game pass.

Thanks,

Brad

Hello Brad,

Thank you for your response, however this is my home xbox and has been for months, it also still says it is my home Xbox. Also too I am using the account that is subscribed to Game Pass Ultimate, and your website explicitly states that Xbox Game Pass games
are playable offline as long as they are games that are normally playable offline when you own them and as long as you check in online once every 30 days so as not to cheat the system.

Hiii @! Hope you are having a good day! Anyway, Thanks for coming to the forums. With an Xbox console, to play offline you need the console set as home and need to select go offline in network settings. The reason for this is it lets Microsoft/Xbox know you are going offline. Then you will be able to play any game that has single-player or local in their description offline. Here is the support page for using the console offline.

If possible try connecting to the hotspot go offline and change the home console. Then you should be good. Since they are game pass games, you technically don't own the games yet so you would be required to be online.

Okay I have my console setup as home and I went to offline mode and am still experiencing this issue
