    Why do I need to buy gamepass after buying the disc for minecraft


    I recently was trying to add skins to my minecraft by buying the old version of minecraft with the deluxe edition disc of minecraft I already have. It didn’t work so I just uninstalled it but now everytime I put in the deluxe edition minecraft it doesn’t let me play online and gives me a introduction to the game everytime and shows how I prefer my screen size and my brightness. Please help me I’m so confused and angry

    :)

    Why do I need to buy gamepass after buying the disc for minecraft

    Hi GoldGalaxy25,

    Thank you for reaching Microsoft Community. We're sorry for the trouble this has caused you.

    I am aware that you’re having trouble with your Minecraft game. Allow me to ask a question to further isolate the issue.

    • Did you try to insert the disc and check to see whether the game can be updated and whether the skin appears? Check the Minecraft website to see if the skin is available if it is still not showing.

    I'd love to help you with this, but I might need you to do this first so that I can narrow down the problem even more.

    Kind regards,

    Lavenia

    Why do I need to buy gamepass after buying the disc for minecraft

    If you wish to access online features you must have game pass core/live gold at the minimum

    Minecraft vs. Game pass?

    You'll need to either buy it or re-up Gamepass because its basically like a game rental/streaming service. You pay for the subscription and you get to download and play ALL the games until it expires, when it does you'll need to re-up it or buy the game
    you wanted. Since the newest version of Minecraft is on Gamepass you'll probably need to buy it if you don't want Gamepass again.

    The version just called "Minecraft" is probably the one you want, do not buy the version called "Minecraft Xbox One Edition" unless that was the version you were playing. The one with "Xbox One Edition" in the title is the
    older version, the one just called Minecraft is the Windows 10/Bedrock version that is updated frequently.

    Do I need a game pass to play Forza Horizon 4 multiplayer on PC ?

    Ummm that only applies to xbox games he is talking about PC

    NO you don't need gold or gamepass HOWEVER if you want to play it but not buy then gamepass is needed

    And you can buy it at a discount with gamepass to keep it otherwise you can't play it after gamepass expires

    Now if you buy it separately no gamepass isn't needed

    Gta removed for gamepass?

    Oh I see the response. Bummer smh I really hope they put back on gamepass I dont want to buy a second disc smh Xbox need make it so once you buy the game disc and download it you dont need have disc in system to play. We have 3 systems I shouldn't have
    to buy 3 of the same game.
