Why won't Outer Worlds run on XGP (PC)?

Connor Bxxx · Dec 26, 2019

I had no issues with it last time I played. Now, when I click to launch the game it either:

1) Closes the XGP app with no error message whatsoever

2) If I click on the pinned tile, it opens the store page for a free app called "Gaming Services", that I already have downloaded.

Hi,

What happens if you try to run said game via the Start Menu?

If you cant find your game type it into the search box.

Have you tried closing the XGP app prior to launching your game? The XGP APP isn't actually needed for XGP games to run.

Have you checked the store for updates that are preventing it's launch?

I really enjoy The Outer Worlds and Dead Cells. There are so many great games on XGP it's up to what you prefer.

Hello TAHER TAHER1,

Thanks for the suggestions but unfortunately the issue is still there (tested with Undertale since I already deleted the Outer Worlds).

Some further info I am not sure if helps.

-> The outer worlds worked fine yesterday on another PC (PC1)

-> Now it doesn't work on my current PC (PC2)

-> On PC1 I only have my personal account

-> On PC2 I have two MS accounts. One from my university account (for office365 etc) and one from my personal account (for XGP). I am sure the Xbox (beta) is logged in with my personal account with XGP, as shown in the screenshot attached at beginning where
shows it expires on 2022.

Even if that account is signed into the Xbox app and the win 10 store? The account with XGP is on 2 different user accounts on my computer. Some games have let me play them such as Sea of Thieves and The Outer Worlds.
