Not being able to downlead game I already bought for Xbox on my pc

jessemorse1 · Dec 30, 2020

when I try to go to my downloads the only games that pop up is Forza horizon 4 and sea of thieves which I both own without the game pass; the games that I am trying to download is GTA 5 and Call Of Duty Modern Warfare. and when I pull them up in my library
on my pc it takes me to the Microsoft store to purchase them when I already own them. But it does give me the option to remotely download them to a one of my Xboxes which I don't want to do.

Those games are not Play Anywhere titles. So you would have to purchase them for the PC if you want to play them on the PC. In order to buy a game for one platform, but download them on both, they have to be

Play Anywhere.

I like being able to stream my xbox to PC, and the ability to continue my saved games on PC with Play Anywhere games.

They must have recently removed it from the play anywhere list, because I checked just recently and it was listed. Also I bought the game for Xbox and was able to install the game not even a week ago on my PC via the windows store without re buying the
game. I have achievements that I unlocked today, Dec 23rd, while playing on PC show up on my Xbox profile, as it asked me to log into my live account on PC. Also When I try and play on PC and my Xbox at the same time I get the, "You are already playing this
game somewhere else" message, so it seems the only thing that seems to not be functioning is the save games being transferred between the 2 platforms which is odd.

Definitely being able to play Halo Reach again. I had MCC, but I would have had to pay extra for Halo Reach, and because I already subscribe to Game Pass I was able to play Halo Reach when it was released! Also being able to play halo on my PC has been
a treat and brought back some memories of the Halo PC days for sure!

I should be able to download a compatible version for any device I use my 1 and only acct on, especially since I have already purchased the game title on my xbox acct... How does one do that??

In short, you can't. There are no Compatable versions of Xbox 360 games available to download for free on PC.

Xbox 360 games and PC games are separate. Just because you've bought a game digitally on the 360 doesn't mean you can download a free version of the PC version.

If you want the PC versions of these games, you'll need to buy them again for the PC platform.
