Many of my friends in the Xbox program get the preview games for free like ark survival but I for some reason don't get this what's wrong with my account

Xbox Preview Program

No, there is no preview program invites anymore. Also, that's early access game you can buy it without being in the preview program.

You don't need to be in the preview program to play ARK.

The game preview is completely separate from the preview program,anyone can access preview games from the store on your dash.

Hello there,

The Xbox One Preview Program - getting access to new builds of the OS early for testing - is a different and separate programme from Xbox Games Preview, which allows users to download unfinished and early builds of games, such as Ark: Survival Evolved.

While the Xbox One Preview Program is only accessible by invitation, Xbox Games Preview is accessible to all users who live in certain regions* - Xbox Games Preview has only been launched in a few regions so far.

*Those regions are: Argentina, Australia, Austria, Brazil, Canada, Czech Republic, Chile, Colombia, France, Germany, Greece, Hungary, India, Ireland, Israel, Italy, Mexico, New Zealand, Portugal, Russia, Saudi Arabia, Slovakia, South Africa, Spain, Switzerland,
United Arab Emirates, United Kingdom and the United States.

If you are not in one of these regions, you will not currently be able to download or play Ark: Survival Evolved, until Xbox Games Preview expands into new markets (there's no public timetable yet for this).

Are you in the preview program? Preview program members are not able to share games purchased during the current preview at the moment.

Hi mattjuntunen,

ARK: Survival Evolved launches today (12/16/2015) as part of the Game Preview program which actually has nothing to do with the dashboard preview. It will be available for $34.99 to all users in the Game Preview section of the
marketplace.

To reiterate: you do not need to be a member of the dashboard preview program to gain access to ARK; the the Game Preview Program is completely different and does not have a dependency on the preview dashboard group.

Metalmilitia625 -- are you in the Preview program? I posted this same message in the Preview Program forums, just in case, since I am in the Preview program and there are Preview updates on my console.

@hagoon58 --

The Game Preview program is unrelated to the Dashboard Preview program. You need not be a member of the Dashboard preview group in order to take advantage of the Ark early access.

There is lots of confusion due to various information floating around the internet.
