I have Xbox Game Pass Ultimate and i connected it to my EA account, in Xbox app i can press Install button, but it opens EA Desktop and offer me to buy EA Play subscribtion.
I found a work around, you have to first install a free game like apex Legions and then it should let you install other games.

I have Xbox Game Pass PC through a family account that is set for the Microsoft store account, being different than my gaming account. I installed EA Play and linked my gaming account to my EA account, but when I try to install an EA Play game from the Xbox app, it leads me to the store page instead of installing it.
Hey there. Curious, were you able to figure out how to install the games or do you still need help?
Community ManagerIf you're not able to play EA Play games through Game Pass can you let me know if the steps in this post help out?
