Xbox game pass games will not run error 88500000

Tywnnvlad · Feb 18, 2022

So for the past couple of months playing Xbox games has been hit or miss.

It is very frustrating and it is making me not want to use the service anymore.

error 88500000 keeps popping up and it seems like a denuvo problem.

It has been happening since b4b and I am just giving up on playing games for xbox.

No defined fix has been published yet and It seems like the problem is not getting acknowledged.

Have there been any updates or suggestions regarding this case?

Still Error

This is a Denuvo error, and not a Windows Store issue. You need to contact the developer if it persists, as the same thing happens on Stream.

You are failing the initial online activation for Denuvo. You need to not be behind a VPN, or have anything else running that may upset its security checks.

Try restarting first the PC and test

The in-place upgrade can take up to 1 hours, but in some cases can be just 20 minutes

Okay, SFC found something.

But the game still won't launch.

May a restart be necessary?

Are you interested in the CBS.log?

So, an in-place upgrade would be the next step, right?

That will probably be more time-consuming?
