Hey @p3kl055xt9zg,

Have you actually played the trial of the game and do you have EA Play by any chance?

    I don’t know what to do, I’ve tried uninstalling the game and reinstalling, I’ve reset my router, restarted my Xbox, restarted the game, but nothing is working. It allows me to play the Xbox one version of the game but not the series x version.

    @p3kl055xt9zg, gotcha. So you have played the trial version of the game and you own the full version of the game, with no EA Play. Gotcha. Just out of curiosity; have you played the trial version of the game on the same Xbox account / EA-account connection as the Xbox account where you now own the full game on?

        @p3kl055xt9zg, alright. And have you checked on your console if it still shows as BF2042 Trial installed, next to the main game?

        Apart from that, you say that you have a physical edition of BF2042 that included both the Xbox One and Xbox Series version?
