    FIFA 16 Not Loading

    I recently purchased FIFA 16 through a redeemable code. It has loaded onto my game hub but is not letting me play. Each time I try to play I am getting a message saying:

    "The person who bought this needs to sign in"

    Even after I have signed in it is still not letting me play.

    Any tips?

  3. Previously Purchased Game Won't Play

    I purchased Tamriel Online from the Microsoft store. I did so from my console and the game is downloaded directly to by hard drive. I have played it many times on this console. I have no issues with any other games.

    It will not play. Error code: 0x803F8001

    Most recently played two weeks ago. I have uninstalled and reinstalled the game, signed in and out of my live account and power cycled the console.

    I would like for this to be remedied by Xbox as I have no issue with any other facet of my console including other downloaded material and online games.

    Preview not letting me play a game previously purchased.

    The preview forums are here forums.xbox.com/.../default.aspx

    Id try deleting the game,hard resetting your console then redownloading the game.

    If that doesn't work post in the feedback forums.

    Previously Purchased Game Won't Play

    Hey there Leviathan!

    I'm sorry to hear about the issue with Elder Scrolls Online. We have a guide specifically relating to

    error code 0x803F8001
    . Take a peek at that and follow the steps outlined there. If you purchased the game digitally, you should see it listed in your
    My Games section. If you don't see it there but believe you purchased it on this account, you can reach out to our
    phone or chat teams and have them dig through your purchases and entitlements to see if they can figure out what's going on. They are able to take a closer look at your account than we can as
    we are public facing.

    Thanks for understanding and good luck! :)

    Xbox Crashing within Minutes of Playing Fortnite

    Hey AveryCox,

    This issue isn't uncommon for game previews such as Fortnite, what we've seen works is like previously posted, Uninstall and reinstall. Try it and let us know how it goes!

    Bought Carmageddon Max Damage, but my friend with my Home Xbox, with shared account can't see the game, must buy it again to play

    Hi, if your Xbox is using the preview update and your friends Xbox isn't and you purchased the game from the store on the preview Xbox that is one of the quirks of using the preview.

    Games purchased on a system using the preview are not available on a system not using the preview. That will be changed once the update is released publicly.

    • Certain content (games, apps, DLC) purchased in the new Store may only be available on consoles enrolled in the latest Preview update. This means…

    • Games purchased on a console running the latest Preview update can only be played on that console or other consoles running the latest Preview update.

    • Games purchased via Xbox.com can be played on any console.

    • Games purchased on a console running the previous update can be played on any console.
