    It isn’t there but I have achievements for the game already from Xbox 360 and Xbox one. I remember purchasing the game back in 2018 .

    Why does it say I don’t own this game?

    I uninstalled and reinstalled the game, for some reason my Xbox didn't update it since the server slam beta and that's why it thought I didn't own the game. The only trick is you can't try to install it through the store, you'll have to do it through your game library.

    Why does it say I don’t own this game?

    I'm having the same issue and can verify that my card has successfully been charged the $100. I even played the game during the open and closed betas. When I view the game in the store it says I own it, but when I try to play now all it says is insert the disk and an error code: 0x82d40005.
