In short though you'll need a Gold account and a Sky subscription.

Hi Luk396!

From how I understand it, the only way to access Sky Go is through the TV from Sky app on Xbox One and Series X|S consoles.

Xbox One and Series X|S console apps - some apps may not be available in your country/region.

Set up TV from Sky on your Xbox One or Xbox Series X|S - step by step guide, which also mentions:

Please be aware that Sky Go Extra is referred to as TV from Sky when downloading or selecting the app on your console.

So don’t listen to anything that says you need the Sky Go app, as this app isn’t available on Xbox consoles. I believe you can access the service through the Sky app on Xbox One, as long as you’re connected to Xbox Live and have Sky Go Extra on your Sky account.

The Sky Go app is available on compatible smartphones, tablets, laptops etc. Just not on consoles, which explains why you’re unable to find it on your Xbox One.

I hope this information helps!

Here's the official word from Sky about the app on Xbox One.

Sky are not working on, or currently plannining a Sky Go app for Xbox One, although this could change in time. That's the official word from Sky.

Stinks of a timed exclusive deal etc if u ask me. Which is probably what Microsoft originally had on the 360.

Sorry just remember the last point.

4) When I tell it go to TV it comes up with an error telling me to check the HDMI cable as I haven't got the sky on yet (might be an idea to tell people to turn on there STB before telling them to start pulling out cables don't you think?) however if I don't
turn the sky on within a couple of seconds the screen doesn't go away until I turn the sky off and on again for some reason, it just goes black every 10 seconds then comes up with the same error, I turn the sky off and on again and wait 10 seconds and everything
is fine, another solution to this would be to get the sky to power on with the goto TV command (or just when the whole system turns on but that might be a waste of electric if I just want to play a game)
