Using the AU Store link from work I could set it to download on my home PC (which was turned on) a few hours ago, and coming back home it was downloaded and playable.
The French page still say I need a code though.
Thanks both. I'll try those out then!
Unavowed still hasn't showed up on PC Game Pass, nor is there any real explanation from MS as to why.
I don't care much about that game specifically - point-and-clicks aren't really my thing - but it's very weird and a bit concerning that a game can be announced for the service, with a specific date attached, and just not show up.

Thanks for the link. Very weird; maybe Adventure Game Studio has some strange compatibility issue with Microsoft's tools. But hopefully this is just a one-off.
Played about an hour of Night Call. Kinda hard to know what to make of it. Good atmosphere and dialogue, but also not really sure where it's going or if the formula will become repetitive after another hour or two.
Yeah, I get the same "Sorry, Partner!" error screen every time I try to access the game page. I can find the game in the Windows 10 store and download it through there, but I'll just wait for it to start working in the app.
Mostly true, however the Forza 4 Drift Cars Pack I'd on Gamepass, downloaded it the other day.
Same, the store says I own the product but it doesn't seem to be installed. Since I already finished the game, I should be ready to go but there's nothing in the shop except telling to wait for the extension.Has anyone figured out how to add the Messenger DLC? I've added it to my PC library, but there's no install button.
If you check The Messenger in the settings/apps/advanced options, there is no additional content linked to the application. If I remember correctly when I had Forza Horizon 4 installed, both the Formula Drift Cars and the DLCs were listed. So obviously there's something wrong here.
Last but not least the PS4 version got new trophies but zero achievement for the pc gamepass version.
Someone should tweet Devolver Digital or Sabotage Studios to tell them that pc gamepass owner can't play the new dlc.
Night Call is finally available here, time to start it
That's the reason I only installed ~5 games until now, it's frustrating.

So i managed to activate the code afterall. Desktop worked, all else failed.
I signed up for GamePass (PC) a few days ago, but so far have only been interested in indies (Guac 2, Timespinner, Wargroove, Blazing Chrome, Crosscode, arguably Hellblade).
I already own The Messenger, Oxenfree, Hollow Knight, Ori, Undertale, Banner Saga, SteamWorld Dig, Fez, Momodora, Rime, Hotline Miami, and a bunch of others on Steam/Twitch/Epic.
Is there anything else I should be looking at in the Metroidvania/platformer/action arena?

I'm enjoying Operencia quite a lot. The writing and voice acting remains poor, but the game and mechanics around them work very well, even making me take a short break from my Messenger playthrough. It's nice to know Bard's Tale IV is coming to Game Pass soon, because I'm in the mood for more :)

I thought Snake Pass was fun (3d 'platformer').
And there's Stealth Inc 2 but I haven't played that, don't know if it's good.
Just a heads up that The Messenger received a 1.2 GB update today for the DLC. You might have to search for the DLC in the app and add it to your account first before it installs. DLC is accessed through the orb in the shop (I think you need to have beaten the final boss first).
Finally ! The new updated version 2.0.3.0 from 1.0.7.0 works fine with the new DLC and cherry on top it adds new achievements :)
Other GP Ultimate users: are you having any issues with downloading the Gears 5 Tech Test for this weekend on PC? I can get it fine on console, but not PC. It says I'm not a GPU member, just GP - but I checked my acct. The accts are the same. Just curious if its a big issue for others.
emag I'll gladly second the recommendation for Snake Pass, it's a wonderful game if the controls end up clicking for you. Took me some hours to get the hang of it, it has a steep learning curve, but I absolutely loved it once it did click for me.
If Lucky's Tale is on PC, I enjoyed that a lot also as a more traditional kinda Crash mixed with Banjo 3D platformer, not super tough but sufficiently challenging to 100%. The DLC is great, too, and the second one in particular offers a lot of challenge (though it wasn't free, at least not on console Game Pass). The main game isn't really tough but it is a fun and an endearing and creative return to 3D mascot platformers.
Also, not sure if Hue is on PC Game Pass, but that is a seriously fun and creative 2D puzzle platformer with an emphasis on puzzles, kinda reminded me of BoxBoy!! if you've played that.
And, I don't think you mentioned Wandersong, I haven't played it but that's a 2d adventure-y game I've seen a lot of praise for around these parts and would really like to play sometime. It's on PC Game Pass but not Console Game Pass.

Been playing Vampyr for the last few weeks, refused to launch today. Reinstalled it, got an error code at the end of the download. Rebooted the PC, game now launched properly, except now the save file has been deleted. I wonder why I never fucking bothered dealing with this piece of shit store.
Not really feeling Night Call. Just finished the first case and it's very repetitive. There's no nuance to the mystery solving either, which is a shame.
Had a very similar problem. When I hit "Play" nothing happened. I uninstalled and when I try to re-install I get an error at the start of the download. This is after giving up on Metro Exodus because I can't get past the intro movie without crashing. Truly a terrible product from Microsoft.
PC gaming is fine for the most part (granted it's expensive). This is just many poor decisions on Microsoft's part. Literally every other PC storefront can at least install and launch games. That's not even getting into the fact that the Xbox app installs games into a protected folder that can't be edited without going through convoluted security settings that didn't even work for me...
On another note I now can't even install any games in the Xbox app.
It's a problem with Microsoft and their shitty store. None of the other storefronts have these sorts of issues.
Hey, I just finished Quantum Break on console gamepass. Better late than never. I am missing just a bunch of secret achievements that I guess are all related to different decisions. The thing is, do they only change mostly the show episodes and some npc/conversations? Or do they mess with the ending/villain/final boss too?
I was thinking of just replaying the junctions and watching the new episodes versions but I don't know if that works or is coherent enough without playing anything.

I don't suppose anybody knows if it's possible to redeem a Game Pass trial code against an existing Game Pas Ultimate sub if you've previously purchased a trial on the WinStore directly?

Tried Dead Rising 4 yesterday because of your post. I didn't play any of the older ones in the franchise, either.
It's really fun! Thanks for the suggestion
Indeed, and I even bought it (it's on summer sale right now).

The robbery deal is still going https://www.resetera.com/threads/mi...-on-xbox-game-pass-ultimate-eurogamer.129908/
While i'm not gonna agree that it's the best in the series, Dead Rising 3 has been unfairly maligned , and everyone should play it.
Just finished Outer Wilds and what an experience. If it wasn't for the frustrating controls this would have been easily a GOTG contender. The sense of exploration is something I didn't experience in a game in a long time and the open world where every location is dependent on an another to answer its mystery is like a euphoria you get over and over again.
Seriously can't recommend the game enough. It may take you 15 hours on average to get everything in the game but it's completely worth it.

It has also made people like me interested in any possible future games when I would not have cared before.
Download windows 10 from Microsoft for free (non activated). Use this to bootcamp your macbook and leave it not activated if you do not have the money to activate. Should work
Enjoying Shadow of the Tomb Raider. Don't mind less combat as that was never the series strong point. But damn is the story stupid. Too bad the A team didn't close out the trilogy.
Ugh, I've still been unable to download Night Call, I've been getting an error even though I'm launching the app as an administrator. I restarted my computer as well. Are there other fixes for this issue, that all worked for me when I initially downloaded the app, but now I'm having trouble again.
