Xbox seriesX uninstalled a game without my knowing and now I’m unable to redownload

The day before yesterday i downloaded final fantasy xv, and i played it all day and yesterday as well. Today, i turn on my xbox to play again and the game wont load! I checked the game options and it says 0gb installed. Super weird. So i went back to the gamestore to download it, and it says “you can play this” and doesnt give me the option to download it. I have gamepass ultimate, so im scared that if i delete and try to redownload it i wont be able to because i dont think its available there anymore. I even deleted three other games to try and clear data but that didnt work either. Can someone help me understand what is going on here? It seems to be issue after issue with this new console and i am getting very frustrated.

Very upsetting to have a time limit on the games provided. I didnt know that when the games left it means they are unplayable on consoles which they are downloaded to.

Final Fantasy XV left gamepass today

Around the middle of the month, notices are put up on social media and on consoles and apps which games are leaving

After uninstalling the game I’m now unable to reinstall it. Xbox says I don’t own the game and won’t let me install it without purchasing it.

So I'd have to purchase the game now on disc to play it on my seriesX?

Is it not available from the store if I use a 360?

I know some games don't show on seriesX but do on 360 store.

I have confirmed it was purchased with the account I was signed on with when I tried to redownload it.

Now I’m wondering if I rent the game and install it if my license will still allow me to play the game without the disc in the console.
