Pc Game Pass - am I doing it wrong?

Brazo · 18 May 2025 at 19:22

I have a 3 month code which I’ve redeemed.

I can’t find any games to play on the gamepass website. They all have a price tag on them to buy. I have seen the odd few with a green banner that says available on game pass but very very few.

Is it really bad or am I doing it wrong?

I think you need the Xbox app installed on the pc and there's a gamepass option on the top main screen of the Xbox console, middle I think. Also guess you have, but confirm you are using the correct Microsoft account, I have been logged in to another one by mistake in the past.

There should always be an option to install the game if you use the Xbox App and if that's there, you're not getting charged.

Thanks all I’ll install the Xbox app and see where I’m at!

https://www.xbox.com/en-GB/xbox-game-pass/games Should show you the list. Just select PC.

you also get a discount for any games that are on it as well, what i do is play any games then after a year or so go to cdkeys and just buy em for dirt cheap if i want to play them again, i think games stay on game pass for a year

Thanks I did get it to work but sadly the games my son wanted were not on game pass (transformers galactic trials and quidditch). I did find them on G2A however.

open the microsoft store from the windows start menu
Click the gaming button on the left menu.
you should see on that page "most popular games included with gamepass"

not every game pass game is listed on that page, just the popular ones though
