    Playing XBox games on Windows with others on console

    So, my wife and I love playing games together. However, she prefers the console, while I prefer the PC. We're looking at playing games like Plants vs. Zombies, Overwatch, and Battleborn together. Is there any way I can play those XBox games on my Windows
    10 PC and play with her as she is on our XBox One? Like, from the XBox app on my Windows 10 PC, can I install an XBox game and play it alongside console players?

    Overwatch Pre Order

    I linked my battle.net account. When doing so I got a message saying that my xbox gamer tag was already associated with another battle.net account. I clicked to confirm and tie the two accounts togeter, but I didn't receive the notification about the addons
    after signing into Overwatch. It has been a couple of days now, is there something else I can do? Also, when playing Overwatch on the xbox does a battle.net account get setup automatically on the back end or should I be worried that someone has somehow tied
    my xbox live account to a different battle.net account?

    No longer getting Game Bar notifications

    It seemed to start after recent updates to the Xbox and Game Bar apps but MS also roll out changes gradually.

    Fixes like app resets, signing out and in, or toggling notification settings. don't help but notifications can randomly start working for a day and then stop again - so its not 100% broken.

    Rather than it being a local PC issue It's possible that achievements and rewards are recorded by their servers which then communicate with our PC to cause a Windows notification to trigger - so it's something in this complex path that's not working.

    Reporting issues either here or in the Feedback Hub seems to have no effect on getting a fix.

    blizzard and your conection

    Hey there Nicolas,

    Thank you for responding, when you purchased the game, did you purchase it for your PC? It is possible that the game itself is only compatible for your PC and won't allow you to play that version on the Xbox One.

    To play the games on the Xbox One you will need to purchase the version that is compatible for the Xbox One.

    Overwatch Legendary Edition


    I hope this helps.

    Xbox to blizzard

    Hello!

    Most of the games you bought on your Xbox will most likely not be transferable to PC, especially not those games which require additional third party clients (like Overwatch). In case you bought games marked with the "Xbox Play Anywhere" icon, you will be
    able to download them from the Microsoft Store on your PC without buying them a second time.

    Hope I helped!

    You need to check on EA if your GamerTag is shown as an Xbox LIVE Persona along with those Games being played. If not contact EA Support. In short, you need the Veteran Status from them.
