I bought xbox game pass and i cant play on PC

There seems to be a lot of ignorant people spreading misinformation on this thread.

If you have "Xbox Game Pass", you can play any of the titles in the "Play Anywhere" category with your PC. You do NOT need a Xbox for these games, and you do NOT need to own a Xbox to subscribe to Xbox Game Pass

"Can I use Xbox Game Pass on my Windows 10 PC?
Xbox Game Pass currently features a select number of Xbox Play Anywhere games that is continually increasing. The latest list of Xbox Play Anywhere titles can be viewed at xbox.com/gamepass"

There is a known issue at the moment that is preventing Xbox Game Pass users from accessing Sea of Thieves after the patch. So sit tight until it is resolved. Source: https://twitter.com/SeaOfThieves/status/978673654455328769

Thank you @Onijix and @Elveone The posters above are either trolls or are simply answering questions they don't have answers too. Possibly they simply have bad info, but I'm jaded. That said those two have spoken the truth @Thorax1616.

Gamepass doesn't require any connection to the console in the least. Gamepass offers a set of games which are unlocked for use for a subscription fee which varies on where you are but hovers around $10/mo. In the effort MS has to attract PSN customers and some PC users MS has a small offering of more relevant games on gamepass and are now in the process of developing MS exclusive titles that will appear on gamepass upon launch of the game. We've seen two of these games in both Sea of Thieves and State of Decay 2 and more titles are upcoming.

But be warned: Gamepass games are generally console only for now. The major exception are the two most recent additions I've named already, Sea of Thieves and State of Decay 2. There are other games which are BOTH Play Anywhere and Game Pass but not many yet. But again, many of the upcoming MS titles are going to be launched as BOTH to continue the effort MS has started to draw customers from PC to the MS store and gamers from PSN.

For some games you will require an Xboxlive Gold subscription but not all will require that as they have offline features. Bear in mind that if you have an MS account that you also have an Xboxlive account even if not paid for Gold.

The major bit regarding play anywhere titles such as State of Decay 2 or Sea of Thieves is to be certain that you have the MS Store logged in under the account that is actually subscribed to Game Pass. This will allow you to browse the MS Store and install the game(s) which are also play anywhere (not all are right now, but some) using the proper account.

Here's the fun part. Once you've installed the game from the MS Store onto your windows (presumably) PC you can play the game regardless of which account you are using so long as at least one criteria is met, the account that you have logged into the Xboxlive App, etc is connected to the paying game pass account as family you are good to go. Quite a good many players have family members linked to a primary account. If this is your case you can have your primary account playing the game on something like PC and other user accounts in your family might also play the game at the same time on Xbox or even another PC without extra cost so long as they too have access to a proper subscription to Xboxlive through your primary account.

All players can do this with this title.

Console players can do this, PC players can do this, game pass players can do this, licence owners of the US $60 disc can do this.

If you are having further issues I am certain that @Onijix or @Elveone or others will happily help you!
