Some games that are supposed to show up on Game Pass PC don't exist in my Xbox App.

I recently got game pass for pc and I was excited to try out some cool different games for example Back 4 Blood which is supposed to be on game pass. Yet when I search for it, it doesn't appear in my xbox app at all. I don't know if that may be a region restrictions, but many other games also don't appear (Hollow Knight for example). So I was very confused and decided to just try from the Xbox website, but it just tells me to get a subscription for 1 dollar. My game pass comes from Discord Nitro's gift program and I got 2 months of game pass and I'm not sure if that's the reason. I am also on Windows 11 and I got in the beta through the insider program, but there have been so many updates since and the official release also came so I don't think I'm on e beta version anymore? The only thing I feel like might be the reason is that some games haven't come out for Windows 11 yet. My only example is that on the Back 4 Blood page it says for Xbox Series X|S / Xbox One / Windows 10 PC and it doesn't just say Windows PC. Please help if you can and thank you!

My account is registered in Mexico. I just checked with the Xbox phone app and Back 4 Blood is there, but it only says download to console. Oh and also game pass does indeed work as I'm playing games like Forza Horizon 5 and The Master Chief Collection with no problems at all.

Hello Czesciek, in your description you mentioned the restriction of the region, in which region you are, I ask this why the Game Pass catalog really may not be the same in all countries, and even the XCloud catalog is slightly different.

Apart from this detail of the region, have you tried to check through your mobile phone App if the game appears in searches, or even on an updated Windows 10 PC?

As for using Windows 11 and being Insider, I don't recommend much at this point, the system is still not very mature and the fact that being insider can sometimes bring system instabilities that are not predicted.

I'm Samy an independent advisor. Welcome to the Xbox community. How are you?

Check if your Windows region matches your region.

Select Start > Settings > Time & Language > Language & Region.

Under Country or region, select your new region.

Restart your PC and then look for the game again in the Xbox app.

I just tried installing Hollow Knight since it's PC only and it launched the Hollow Knight page on my Xbox App but while on the website it says "INSTALL TO included with Game Pass" in the app it says not available. Oh and also Back 4 Blood is nowhere to be found in my Xbox app.

In the Xbox App, Back 4 Blood just lists PC...should still work with Win 11 (well, should and actual are 2 different things of course)

Have you tried via the Microsoft Store direct? Xbox app can be buggy at times. The MS Store should give you an option to install via Game Pass

I can't find anything to say B4B is region restricted at all so it could simply be an app issue. The Xbox website saying you need to subscribe is probably because you were looking at the Xbox version of it
