Microsoft just said they fixed the game pass error, so I try downloading the game again and am still getting this error. I have tried clearing my appdata cache, restarting, pretty much everything that I've seen on other forums. Does anyone have a solid fix?

As an update: I managed to get my game working by canceling the update and doing it from scratch. I don't believe I reinstalled the game, just re-downloaded the update.

I cancelled my update and launched the game (to check I would get the Beigebear version mismatch error, which I did).

I'm now redownloading the update- as I imagine the issue with Game Pass may have affected the download in some way.

If that doesn't work, I'll try reinstalling. I'll post back if I get it working.
Good luck to anyone who is also experiencing this issue.
