    Purchase of an Xbox Ubisoft game has corrupted my principle accounts!


    Yesterday, there was an Xbox sale notification regarding a wish list game discounted for the holidays. I purchased the Assassins' Creed game for $19.99. The Ubisoft company develops the game. However, the process was a nightmare! I needed to create a Ubisoft account which created a loop of attempts to execute. Also, it was recommended that I use 2-step authentication which I complied with. Moreover, I linked my devices to this account which includes my smartphone and smart TV. The game itself indicated that it would run on both my PC and Xbox console. I also downloaded the Ubisoft app onto my smartphone. The only download that worked was on my Xbox console.

    However, as mentioned, the process was very confused. I had to log in several times and several times the credentials I had just created were not recognized requiring that I re-register. Also, Microsoft's and Google's login credentials must have been corrupted as the login process was also corrupted and the credentials were not recognized. The creation of the Ubisoft account linked to the GOOGLE Authenticator app as the Microsoft Authenticator did NOT synchronize well as the process required a SIX-digit code rather than the eight digits generated by the Microsoft Authenticator.

    Please inform me why or if I must reset ALL my login credentials as they no longer work! I am using my Microsoft Authenticator on my smartphone as the alternate method of authorizing access to my account but need help in correcting all the confusion that has resulted in the purchase of the game and its installation on my device(s).

    Thank you in advance.

    Hope you're doing great today despite this BEARLYALIVE

    Just to confirm, are you able to sign in without problems with your Microsoft account here?

    If everything looks good and you’re able to do it you need to reach Ubisoft support, they’re responsible for their service and account management

    If you’re not able to sign in with your Microsoft account in the link shared above, tell me what happens exactly when you try to do it?

    All I want to do is play Far cry 5 with an Xbox linked account so I can play Co-op with my brother without paying extra every month for it.

    Availability on the Microsoft store depends on each developer, in this case Ubisoft has their own launcher and store.
    So, this means that if you want to play Far cry 5 on PC. You need to purchase the game in the Ubisoft launcher (something similar happen to another Ubisoft games like AC Origins)

    Most of the Ubisoft games requires an Ubisoft account, you can link this account with your Microsoft account (but you can have a completely separate Ubisoft account)

    If you don't want to pay for game pass only to play a single game. Your best option is purchase the game directly

    Why can’t I play siege even though I have game pass on top of owning the game? Has anyone else had this problem?

    Hello, Caden my name is Oskayra I am an independent advisor and player like you I hope I can help solve your problem today

    It can be frustrating to encounter issues playing Rainbow Six Siege even though you have Xbox Game Pass and own the game. This problem has been reported by some users, so you're not alone. Here are some possible reasons and solutions you can try:

    Possible Reasons:

    Incomplete Game Installation: Some game files might be missing or corrupted, preventing Ubisoft Connect from launching properly.

    Game Pass Subscription Conflict: There might be a conflict between your Game Pass subscription and the owned copy of the game.

    Ubisoft Connect Account Issues: Your Ubisoft Connect account information or linking might be incorrect or outdated.

    Network Connectivity Issues: A weak or unstable internet connection can interfere with online services like Ubisoft Connect.
    Solutions:

    Verify Game Installation:

    On your Xbox console, go to My Games & Apps > Manage games.
    Select Rainbow Six Siege and choose "Manage Game".
    Check for any missing updates or corrupted data.
    If necessary, reinstall the entire game.

    Check Game Pass Subscription:

    Ensure your Xbox Game Pass subscription is active and not expired.
    If you have recently canceled your subscription, you might need to purchase the game again or wait until it leaves Game Pass.

    Link Ubisoft Connect Account:

    Check if your Ubisoft Connect account is linked to your Xbox Live account.
    Go to Settings > Account > Linked accounts.

    If not linked, connect your Ubisoft Connect account through the in-game menu or the Ubisoft Connect website.
    Troubleshoot Network:

    Power cycle your router and modem.
    Check your internet connection speed and stability.
    Try connecting your Xbox console directly to your router via Ethernet cable.

    I hope the information I gave you has been useful, have a happy day.

    Ubisoft plus

    Hi again DarkDraconisX

    Yes, you can purchase Ubisoft Plus from your Xbox console, as long as your Xbox and Ubisoft accounts are linked.

    Once you have purchased the subscription, you will be able to access Ubisoft Plus games from any device compatible with Ubisoft Connect.

    In short, you can buy Ubisoft Plus from the Xbox console or from the Ubisoft website. If your Xbox and Ubisoft accounts are linked, you'll be able to access Ubisoft Plus games from any device that supports Ubisoft Connect.

    I hope I have clarified your doubts. Thank you for your understanding and I hope the problem is resolved soon.

    Best regards Oskaira

    Hello Kelvin Jameson,

    Thank you for posting in the Microsoft Community.

    To activate your subscription on Xbox, you’ll need to link the Microsoft account you use for Xbox gaming to your Ubisoft account used for the purchase of Ubisoft+.

    If your Microsoft account was previously linked to another Ubisoft account, you must first unlink it in your Ubisoft subscription account management. Afterward, you must relink the Ubisoft account used for the purchase of Ubisoft+ to ensure smooth access to your subscription on Xbox.

    Managing or canceling your subscription must be done on the platform where you purchased it.

    For more information, go to:

    https://account.microsoft.com/services

    If you’ve purchased Ubisoft+ on another platform, you must link your Ubisoft account with the Microsoft account you use for Xbox gaming to activate your subscription on Xbox. You’ll need to manage or cancel your subscription on the platform from which you purchased it. For more information, go to:

    https://www.ubisoft.com/help/article/000064718
