Discus and support Xbox One will not play games offline in XBoX on Consoles to solve the problem; I started up the Xbox One tonight in hopes of playing something on Rare Replay.

  1. Xbox One will not play games offline


    I started up the Xbox One tonight in hopes of playing something on Rare Replay. However, when I launched the game, it came up with this message:

    "Connect to Xbox Live

    To start this game or app, you need to be signed in to Xbox Live. Check your connection in Settings > Network > Network settings."

    My Xbox One's ability to connect to the internet wirelessly has been broken for a while, although I don't want to send it in for repairs as that would take money and time that I do not want to spend. Recently, I've been hooking it up via ethernet whenever
    it requires updates, but that requires a really awkward setup that I can't do right now.

    This error occurs for every game I have installed on my xbox, including the Witcher 3 (which is offline). I have tried turning the Xbox off, as well as changing it to offline mode, and nothing has made a difference. It's starting to get to my nerves. What
    can I do?

    :)

    xbox sign in problem

    Countries that are not in that list can not sign into xbox live. If you have digital games that is unfortunate as you need a connection to xbox live to do that or make your console the

    to
    play them offline
    . You can play disc games offline though.

    Sorry about this.

  5. The games I have are all on disk, excluding the games downloaded from Rare Replay. Also, in order to set my home Xbox, I need to be connected to the internet, which (again) ism't a possibility.

    For digital games you need to set it as Home Xbox in order to play them offline. There´s no way around that.

    The disc based games should work offline without that as far as i know. Is the right Disc in the Xbox One if you try to launch a Disc based game?

    Is the Console reading the Disc correctly / registering that there´s a Disc inside it?

    Make also sure its set to offline in the Settings and might try to set it to Power Saving mode / Instant on to see if that makes a difference.
