    Xbox game transfer.

    nope, this has always been this way, the disc is the licence, the disc has to be present for licence auth, if no disc then you need to own the digital licence therefore purchase a digital copy, it has been well known that the consoles with NO disc drives require digital games only, this was the same with Xbox one digital and Xbox series s, if you want to run a disc then you need the series x.

    This is the same on all platforms too.

    You could try selling the disc copy privately to make the money towards buying the digital version.

    Eventually discs will be discontinued on future consoles and then only digital will be available.

    I play PC I own a lot of disc games from decades ago, but I have repurchased all digital as PC is 99% digital only now.

    Digital version of Borderlands GOTY is freezing and not letting me delete any saved data or even restart the system. I have to fully power the system down each time.

    It won’t let me click on the reset option or even use the restart option for anything. It will only allow me to uninstall the games directly. The game is the digital copy purchased from the Xbox store on the Xbox series x.

    If I buy the physical copy of Hogwarts Legacy on the Xbox one, will it work on the new Xbox Series 1 console?

    Yes, Xbox One game discs should work on the Xbox Series X consoles, as they are backwards compatible. So if you buy the physical copy of Hogwarts Legacy on the Xbox One, you should be able to play it on the Xbox Series X consoles, However If you don't have a Digital Copy or Disk Reader technology that reads disks and install them on you're Console it'll will not work on Series S as it's all Digital.

    No,you would have to buy a digital copy of the game.

    A disc copy doesn't come with a digital version so would not work on a Series S as that console has no disc drive.

    If I own the disc, do I still have to buy the game?

    If it's not backwards compatible, then it won't be possible to play it on a Series X with a disc or with a digital copy.
