Xbox Game Pass EA Games Redirecting to EA App and Asking Me to Buy
Hi everyone,
I’m having an issue with downloading EA games through Xbox Game Pass (I have an active subscription).
When I try to install any EA game from the Xbox app on PC, it first shows “Preparing,” but then it redirects me to the EA app. Once there, instead of letting me download the game through Game Pass, it says I need to buy the game.
Here’s what I’ve already checked:
My Xbox Game Pass subscription is active (Premium)
I am signed into the correct Xbox account
The issue happens with multiple EA games
Hey makif3432,
Thanks for providing that context.
I'm afraid Xbox Game Pass Premium does not include EA Play; you'll need the Ultimate or PC version to have access. This page reflects that information as well. Hope that clears things up!
