    Hi there! This is Ronnie, an independent advisor.

    Nice to meet you and I hope you are having a great day!

    I understand you need help with your game problem.

    If I may ask, is this on your Xbox console?

    Please also check the purchase that you made before on your account through your order history here:

    https://account.microsoft.com/billing/orders/

    Check if you can find the game completely purchased on there. Try searching the game from the store and see if you can install it from there or if it says that you owned it.

    I have been in a similar situation before. Not with Mortal Kombat, but, Forza games.

    1. So, I purchased the "ultimate edition" ADD-ON for the "base" game of Forza.
    1. Now, here, the 'base' game was from Xbox Game Pass, which I don't own.

    1. But, I own the "ultimate edition" ADD-ON for the "base" game.

    But then, one month, due to some card issues, I lost game pass for a few days. Now, Forza became "unavailable" because, I won the DLC but not the game itself.

    Then, later, I fixed my card issues, and Xbox Game Pass Ultimate got renewed. And, I could play again.

    So, perhaps, something similar happened?

    See if you 'own' the base game as well. If not, you may have to buy the 'base game' only and the DLC will get attached to it.

    CANT PLAY 360 GAME I PAID FOR.

    Hey there,

    Sorry to hear about the issue, let's give these steps a shot first!

    1. Navigate to 'All settings' from the Xbox One guide menu.
    2. Within the settings screen, scroll down to 'System' and select 'Storage'.
    3. Within the storage screen, select 'clear local Xbox 360 storage'.

    Once those steps have been completed, give it another shot and let us know if it helped!
