    Xbox play anywhere


    Hey everyone, i saw the new xbox one feature of playing your xbox games on your pc with play anywhere and was really stoked. I was just wondering if the play anywhere games such as Ark,which was listed as coming soon, could be played on your xbox if you
    had it already installed on your pc

    :)

    They can access the games on your console because you have it set as your Home console which allows that, but there is no equivalent on the PC. So you'd have to be signed into your account in order to play it on the PC.

    I have an xbox (gold) live account for xbox one console. I also have two child accounts under my account. I recently purchased digital copies of Recore and Forza Horizon 3 play anywhere titles through the store on xbox one. I also have windows 10 laptop
    with recent updates. The games work great when I log into Windows 10 and xbox app however when my kids try to log into the games under their own login both for Windows and xbox app the games are not available for them to download and play. Both kids can
    play both games on the xbox one console but not on windows 10. Any ideas?

    Why cant I access all my games I PAID GOOD MONEY FOR on the Xbox360 digital store on my PC?

    Unfortunately, the Xbox 360 games not all of them are a play anywhere game.
    Here is the list of the play anywhere games: Xbox Play Anywhere | Xbox

    What about the Steam licensing? I have honestly not looked much into it. Is there something that Steam does that would stop that from happening? I guess Steam could have some clause that prevents it. If so, not a fan of that myself. Not a fan when any
    company does that. Just make a great platform and sell it. I understand that doing things to block the competition is good business. I just like having the options.

    @Guerrero That would be awesome but I think the whole Steam licensing thing holds that up as they are competing services. I was talking about this with a guy I work with the other day.

    Just be aware that you need the Win 10 Anniversary edition of the OS to enable Play Anywhere. It took me about 3 hours to download and "upgrade" the earlier version of Win 10 on my PC yesterday to enable the download button in the Windows store so I could
    get the PC copy I was entitled to.
