Re: [Bug] Trial only despite having a disc copy (Xbox)

This happened to us as well. My wife and I tried the trial version and decided to buy the disc version of the game. However, it kept on showing the trial version on the game menu even though I have installed and updated the game. I tried some of the things that you did and it worked for me after a couple of tries. This is what I did:

 

1. Sign out and restart the xbox.

2. Choose skip sign in when xbox starts.

3. Open the game.

4. Log in your account when prompted to sign in.

5. If the menu still shows the trial version, close the game and go back to step 1.

 

I think it took me around 4-5 tries before the full version of the game showed up. You might also want to check the version you are using. Just do "see in microsoft store" and choose the version that doesn't say digital.

 

Hopefully this helps anyone who's having the same problem.

    Just an update, it went back to the trial version after I quit the game and ejected the disc. It kept on doing that whenever I turned off my console.

    I think this only happens to users who played the demo first before buying the game. I read the reviews of the disc version on best buy and none of the comments mentioned this problem. I just did the steps again and the problem got fixed after.

    1. Sign out.

    2. Restart your xbox.

    3. Skip sign in.

    4. Start the game.

    5. Sign in when prompted.

    I turned the disc "resume playback" on and off in the device and connections settings. I also cleared the persistent storage of my xbox in the blu ray device and connection settings. Not sure if these steps helped but the game started working after I played with these settings.
