Xbox live gold subscription not recognised games

Have exactly the same problem, reset my account still does not work

Hi

Can you please try a full console restart to see if you Gold subscription is then recognised by your console. If this did not work I would next suggest you try removing your account from the console and re load your account hopefully your subscription will
then be recognised by your cone.

If carrying out the two suggestions above did not work can you please click on
this link here you should be able to confirm your current account subscriptions including the expiry date of your gold subscription.

When I go to the Microsoft store on the console, it shows the live purchase but when I go to a game the live won’t work

The following limitations and restrictions apply to Xbox Live trial subscriptions from games or console bundles:

• If you have an existing paid Xbox Live Gold subscription, you can’t redeem Xbox Live Gold trial subscriptions from games or console bundles to extend your subscription period. However, you can redeem the prepaid code once your current paid subscription
  expires.
• Prepaid codes for Xbox Live Gold trial subscriptions are only available in select games and bundles.
• You can’t access Games with Gold for the Xbox 360 with this type of Xbox Live Gold trial subscription.
• You can’t stack prepaid codes for Xbox Live Gold trial subscriptions from games or console bundles. This means that you can’t start another trial period before your current trial period has finished. However, you can purchase a new paid Xbox Live Gold subscription
  and start the subscription at any time during the trial period.
• If you don’t currently have a paid Xbox Live Gold subscription, there is no limit to the number of times you can use this type of Xbox Live Gold trial subscription.

I wish it were that simple, I feel as though it must recognise it as an official subscription because the message I received when trying to visit the store changed from "A gold subscription is required for online play" to "No Downloadable Content available
at this time."

It no longer badgers me for a gold subscription it just purely does not recognise my season pass. (and/or the presence of any dlc at all)

Seems like the issue is not regarding to your game edition it is due to your subscription. The game requires Xbox Live Gold subscription to play it. It’s either you will purchase Xbox Live Gold subscription or Xbox Game Pass Ultimate since the Ultimate included Xbox Live Gold as well.
