    Purchased original The Outer Worlds on Windows Store - Now Spacer's Choice DLC will not work


    This isn't the first issue I've had when supporting Play Anywhere then transitioning to Ultimate Game Pass.

    I think the issue stems mainly from the fact Xbox PC app shows The Outer Worlds as Game Pass version OR the Full Blown option.

    However I purchased the original, and the DLC.

    Now I should have had the option to buy Spacer's CHoice at a discount (I believe $5?) regardless I bought the version from the Obisidian help page which takes me to Xbox games I also bought it from withing the Game Pass (Xbox) App on Windows 11 (will get a refund for one later I guess)

    Neither one works, still showing version 1.5 and I believe Obsidian posted The Outer Worlds SHOULD be at version 2, the game looks the same to me, and the app shows its version 1.5xxx

    Supposedly Xbox has Chat 24.7 and phone calls starting at my time on Saturday, but Bzzt! Wrong I can only post to forums. My fault for supporting Play Anywhere and Xbox/PC gaming I guess...

    Hi Dvlos,

    Welcome to Xbox Community Forums. We appreciate for sharing your concern with us and we hope that you are doing well today.

    We understand the inconvenience caused and we love to help. However, before we proceed, we would like to ask few questions about it.

    1. Did you buy all these stuffs from Micrsoft Store?
    2. Are you having issues contacting our real time support to request for a refund?
    3. Have you tried contacting the game developer?

    Above questions would help us provide the necessary information. Once we have gathered all the information, we will formulate the viable solution to help you with your case.

    As we have research, the original version of the game is available on Game Pass, whereas the Spacer's Choice Edition is only available when bought separately.

    If you have other clarifications, you can get back to us by replying to this post.

    We will be glad to follow up and help you.

    If you've bought the Spacer's Choice DLC from the Microsoft Store, then you'll need to search for the Spacer's Choice edition in order to add it to your library. It should be free to install once the DLC is purchased. To be clear, it is a separate install, enabled by your purchase of the DLC in the regular version.

    Here is the link directly to the game on the Microsoft page:

    https://www.microsoft.com/store/productId/9NG2F1Q062VV

    To Microsoft: this is not a straightforward process, and no instructions were given about how to actually use the DLC. I only found this out through Reddit. Please update your listing to give proper instructions on how to activate this purchase.

    Why can't I play a digital game I purchased?

    On further inspection I can't play my game The Outer Worlds: Spacer's Choice Edition that I purchased on March 8 either. Yeah...as a loyal Xbox gamer owner of hundreds of digital games I am done buying off the Marketplace until this issue is resolved.
