    Unable to buy a pre-order game in the Xbox store as gift


    I would like to buy Lego Star Wars the Skywalker saga for my son as a gift. The pre-order however doesn't have the option "Buy as gift" where other games have this option (Ie. Far Cry 6 has this option). Why can't I buy a pre-order as a gift?

    Pre-ordering FIFA 20 champion edition and receive as disc?

    If you pre-order from the Microsoft store, it will be digital. You can pre-order a physical copy from participating retailers. However, the Microsoft store is more advantageous in my opinion. You can take advantage the Microsoft rewards program when you
    buy from the store. Usually a $60 game, rewards you with 5,000 Microsoft points, that you can use for in game purchases, extending your xbox live service, or even buying a Starbucks gift card.

    Xbox one preorders

    Hi Superman8900,

    Thanks for reaching out to us in the forums for this question. At current, it is not possible to pre-order as a gift from the online Microsoft store. If you do wish to make that purchase for a friend, you may need to either gift them currency or make the
    pre-order from a stand alone retailer.

    I hope that this helps out!

    Also, another workaround is buying an Xbox Gift Card to use in pre-ordering the game, WarCOMBAT27.

    Digital games more expensive than physical games?!?

    I just hate how I can pre-order madden 15 on the MS store and it comes with a $10 gift card, but if I pre-order it through my xbox one its the same price without the gift card. Pre-orders should just be $49.99 then without the GC

    Cannot buy a game as a gift if I already own it?

    Once the game releases, you should be able to buy it as a gift. They just don't allow the gift option on pre-orders.
