OK thanks, Hellblade works but seems not all games listed are ready yet. Or maybe the lists are wrong. Was specifically trying Mutant Year Zero and Surviving Mars. Neither can be installed on PC.

Ok so I just got the Ultimate Game Pass for €1 deal which has extended it and Xbox Gold to January 2022.
I just used a code I had for 3 Months of Xbox Live, it was from that deal on Amazon a while back where you got 2 3-Month codes and Apex Legends Money code, the Ultimate Game Pass was also extended by 3 months

Both of those installed for me no problem They also require Windows Update 1903 I think. Also, does your Xbox app look like this?

Ah I see what's going on, I already own it on the Xbox so I have to click the elipses and install on my devices. But even doing that my PC ain't showing up...

Same thing with the Xbox Beta app. Feck it, what's going on here?!

I have the same problem, I am on Windows 10 Enterprise

Just wondering if there is a cross save feature for games on gamepass between pc and xbox.

Play forza on pc then go on xbox and continue the same progress and earn progress towards achievements and vice versa.

Would be a nice feature.

If it's a "Play Anywhere" game like Forza or Gears of War 4 for example I'm pretty sure your progress will carry over.

Yes it does, I regularly switch between console and PC on Forza. Progress is seamless.

Good question though regarding non play anywhere titles...

Yup that's exactly how it works. Paid up for 2 years now.

It will stack your subs together too, so if you have 6 months gold left and 6 months game pass that equates to one year of ultimate.

So basically you go out and buy a few years of Live and add it to your account. What then? Sorry, I’m dense today.

Then pay the euro to upgrade it to Ultimate. It should work to a max of 3 years.

Sorry lads, I'm a bit confused myself.

I have a month left of my current gamespass, I have a 3 month code I haven't added yet. If I add the additional 3 month code, pay for a year for Xbox Live and then use the €1 Ultimate thingy, what do I end up with?

maximoose

Either 12 or 15 months of Game Pass Ultimate, not entirely sure! :pac:


I upgraded to Ultimate yesterday, but now the Game Pass android app isn't recognising my game pass sub

I would think 16 months based on what I got.

I had 6 months gold left and an unused code for 6 months game pass. I got a year of Gold off cdkeys and redeemed the 6 month code for game pass.

So I had 18 months gold and 6 months game pass active at this point, when I did the upgrade that turned into 2 years Ultimate.

About 17 months of GPU. 1 month Gold + 3 months Gold + 12 months Gold + 1 month GPU.

Just both 2 years of gold on cdkey for €89 and €1 for ultimate and now have the ultimate pass until June 10th 2022 :-) , Thanks to the boardsie that first posted about this :-)

Cool, that's a feature I'll definitely be trying out.

Is it not 1 euro for one month only? What about next month?

If you have Live (or GamePass) now that expires on the 31/12/2021 for example and you avail of the €1 GamePass Ultimate offer your current subscriptions will convert to Ultimate and add an extra month.

You'll now have Ultimate that expires 31/01/2022 that gives you access to Live, GamePass on Xbox and GamePass on PC.

When purchasing it did say 1 month and then £10.99 would kick in on next month but my subscription status now says next payment to be in 01/04/2020 so looks good to me!

So best off extending Gold again prior to expiring and then picking up the 1 offer right now?

No reoccurring charges by the sounds of it!

Yup. I would have extended Gold prior to jumping on this had I been conscious of how little I had left.

Yup you can extend up to 3 years. Make sure you turn off auto renew or you'll have the €15 taken whenever your current subscription expires.

Looks like there's a bit of delay with processing. I image they've just gone through a fair amount of keys over the last 18 hours. My order is waiting for restock.

Try Press Start too. €42.50 for a 12 month sub atm.

OK, my Live Gold subscription was until the end of this month so I thought I could pig out with a 3 year hack....didn't quite work out!

Went onto Press-Start as recommended above, bought 12 months of World Wide, code was instant, redeemed it with no problem along with keeping the auto renew option on for the extra free month, turned it off once redeemed.

Ordered a second and third 12 month code from Press-Start but both were stuck on the payment verification, got an email asking to upload photo ID with their logo. Did that and then both my 12 months codes appeared, happy days!

Put code 2 into XBOX with the 1 month extra for auto renew, turned off auto renew once processed. Put in code 3, get an error message. My 2 free auto renew months are pushing me over the 3 year stacking limit :< !

Was considering buying a 6 month subscription and trying that but I've already been too greedy...Bought the Game Pass Ultimate for 1 euro and now have Game Pass Ultimate until 10/30/2021 ! Can't complain too much!

Have contacted Press-Start to see if I can get a refund on the unused 12 month code, don't expect they will but can't hurt to try.

Great deal. I now have Games Pass Ultimate until 22nd Jan 2022. I just turned off the AUTO renew subscription once I upgraded. What a bargain.

Just sell the code to one of the lads here. DON'T put the advert on boards obviously. Stick it up on adverts etc.

I read on HDUK that someone did same as you and when they then added Xbox live code it counted towards ultimate.
