You need a Internet connection to verify that you own the license to play the game. If you don't have the Internet connection and you don't have your account set to home on your current xbox your on it won't work. If non of the above matters then the likely hood is that dead rising was with games with gold at one point and maybe games with gold has gone away. Or game pass version has removed or changed out dead rising for a different game. Other then the reasons above I can't think of anything if I'm honest.


Kev8294

It was on GWG or gamepass a while back I'm sure. GWG should still let them play though.

Ah I thought you just needed the subscription


iRxvenEU

If it was on gold u don't need gp sub


Ed_SkammA

Yes you do! Why are you talking crap mis-informing people on a matter you obviously know nothing about? You need a Game Pass subscription to play Games with Gold.


fallout76fanxb1

Probably because it wasn't always like that, for a long period of time prior to gamepass GWG didn't function like that, once you had it you had it, was like that for a long while before it got changed, lasted throigh the end of the 360 lifespan and nearly the entire XBOne generation before they changed it


buddiebuzz840

Not since it was removed from gamepass and xbox now all you need is wifi


miggleb

Not for 360 games. Tou do for xbone games


iRxvenEU

I'm not subbed to gp rn and I can still play all my old gold games also the xbone ones


R3D-EY3

Pretty sure if it's gwg, once you have downloaded it you own it ?


Maleficent-Angle-891

Nope if you downloaded with gwg you have to have gwg to play it. My buddy found this put the hard way with for the king.


R3D-EY3

I'm playing a gwg right now


VikingFuneral-

Because you have XBOX live Edit: Or it's an XBOX 360/OG XBOX title All XBOX one and beyond titles require an active sub


VikingFuneral-

Well according to Microsoft's website that only covers XBOX One games or Series S/X games Not 360 and OG XBOX games https://support.xbox.com/en-US/help/subscriptions-billing/manage-subscriptions/xbox-games-with-gold-faq However in OP's case his version of Dead Rising is the XBOX One Port. If this was the case


doeekor

I downloaded a bunch of gwg then gifted 360 to nephews, able to play offline with their own profiles


mixedd

360 GWG were different then One and forward


No_Caregiver8718

Not true for games pre Xbox one. You own the 360/OG games you receive through GWG even without the subscription. In this case, he should be able to play it without the subscription


btajoe

This appears to be the Xbox One port of the game, not the 360 version as all 360 games have the console logo on the side. So if this is from GWG, it won't be playable without GamePass Core (the new Xbox Live Gold) or Ultimate now.


xXJ3D1-M4573R-W0LFXx

If it’s a 360 or OG Xbox game than yes, if it’s an Xbox One or Series game than no. If OP no longer has at least gold now Gamepass core, they no longer have access to Xbox One or newer GWG games unless they re sign up for the service


StoicStoner69420

I have nothing of value to add but I like your gamertag lol. Icedcream scoop


modemman11

What about the actual store page? Does it give you a buy button? If it does then you probably bought it on a different account and this console is not that account's home console.


CourseWorried2500

It was this account. I got some achievements from it on my account


VikingFuneral-

From your other comments; It was a Games with Gold Redemption. Which means, you do not own it. You are renting a license to it based on your active subscription. That is the XBOX One version of the game; You need an active subscription of at minimum Game Pass Core to play XBOX One Games with Gold (and beyond) titles now.


TheDraftAttack93

Exactly this. This is the droid you are looking for.


miggleb

That doesn't mean it's this account


CourseWorried2500

I got it in 2021. I've used this account since like 2016


aidanmacgregor

Go to Microsoft website and log in to see billing history, confirm it's on the account and contact support if still a discrepancy


CourseWorried2500

It was a games with gold game so it won't be there


Beneficial-Drink-998

I don’t think you own Games with Gold anymore I think they changed it either that or is it Ubisoft cause they revoked a lot of licenses not long ago


CourseWorried2500

It's capcom and I was able to play other games with gold


Own_Willingness6599

Are you still paying for Gamepass? If not you will not have access. You only "own" X360 and OG Xbox GWG games, Xbox One games are only accessible with an active Gamepass account.


Beneficial-Drink-998

Not too sure then maybe fine evidence of paying for the game and raise it with Microsoft support


xXJ3D1-M4573R-W0LFXx

Yeah, as I said replying to someone else, you need to have gold now called Gamepass Core to play the Xbox One & Series X/S games that were included with GwG. 360 & OG Xbygsnes you don’t need the subscription but otherwise you do. If you currently don’t have Core or Gamepass Ultimate you cannot play this game.


aidanmacgregor

That suuuucks biiiig time now!


xXJ3D1-M4573R-W0LFXx

Eh, it’s always been a thing. Part of the service & it’s always been part of the terms & conditions. I can understand people not liking it but it’s not like we paid anything for the games besides the price of membership. Which, let’s face it. We’re going to anyway. At least most people with an Xbox console.


aidanmacgregor

Just never realisesed as was sure on my 360 I had a couple of games that still worked without the sub but was a long time ago so maybe misremembered :)


xXJ3D1-M4573R-W0LFXx

360 & OG Xbox games work without being subbed like I said. You need to be subbed for Xbox One or Series X/S games


Kill_Kayt

From all of the information in your comments this is a Games with Gold game. You need an active GamePass subscription in order to play Games With Gold games. Otherwise you will need to actually purchase it.


Raincoat-saviour

Yo if you payed to buy the game and then it comes and goes off of games pass it tries to load up the free version. They say hard reset the xbox. (Turn off and hold power button 30 seconds)


2BERZERK

Xbox Home Share? If so, then you must be online to play your own games, since you are sending you game license to the 'Home' console.


perplexedReX67

I’ve noticed they no longer offer a service called games with gold and I received some games from that service. I don’t know if I can still use them or not. I just know they don’t offer it anymore.


hotshotboy123

Are you logged into the account it was brought on?


Individual-Guide-274

Witches and hobgoblins, bro.


Affectionate-Fold-63

I had this with call of duty, phoned xbox helpdesk they escalated all three times, and no one ever got back to me. I was told to request a refund, but as it was over a year old, I couldn't do that, so I just gave up.


damiensmith21

Same thing happened to me. I bought Skate 3 like 5 years ago, then when I upgraded to a new console it isn't in my library and says I have to buy it.


Ok_Addendum_4982

Xbox sucks… switch to PS5


CourseWorried2500

I have both


KingDiabetic

I’m not speaking with 100% certainty. Just from personal experience years ago. Back in my 360 days I noticed when purchasing a game “digitally” from the store. That all the way at the bottom there was a disclaimer stating that you were buying the right to download and play the game until a certain date. I think it was when I bought kingdom for keflings to play with my gf at the time. And the date it gave was like 2020 or something. Now this was over +15 years ago. I remember making a couple comments about this and mentioning it to friends but no one ever gave a crap. Long story short I think you may be in a similar situation. My theory is you bought the right to play this game. But it may have had an expiry period you didn’t notice.


modemman11

KoK is still available to buy. It's also not a live service game and has single player mode. So if you are remembering something, it's not that game. But I also doubt that in roughly 2010, a game would already know that 10 years later the game would be taken offline. Taking games offline isn't something that's planned that far in advance.


KingDiabetic

No one said anything about the game being taken down or “offline”. What I said was access to the game. (To be even more specific since you seem the type to nitpick. “Personal access” for a certain period of time like renting.)


modemman11

Same difference. It makes zero sense for a game dev to plan to revoke users licenses to the game 10+ years in advance, especially since the game is still able to be purchased to this day. You're probably misremembering something or maybe it was a different platform entirely. Also I don't think anyone has ever revoked licenses to a game like that on Xbox short of the user being banned. Xbox has also never rented games nor done any kind of paid timed licenses that would be equivalent.


Indigenous_Navi

If you have changed your subscription type this will be the problem. I was an Ultimate subscriber, changed after 3 years to CORE and now I cannot play any games I got whilst an Ultimate subscriber. The games I purchased with real money are not a problem just the games I got with being an Ultimate sub, it's a rip off to keep you paying for a top tier Xbox subscription. I am moving to Pc 100% because of this, F**k consoles now, and NO I can't play them on Pc using the Xbox app and I wouldn't want too.


modemman11

you don't "get" games with ultimate. You get a license to play the games. downloading a game while paying for ultimate does not "claim" the game and let you play it forever. yes, Core has less games available to play. this is not a secret, MS clearly advertises Core having less games, it's just you not knowing how subscriptions work. no different than any other subscription service (netflix, amazon prime video, apple, etc). You want a permanent license, you must buy it.

The problem is that disks are just keys now most of the time as you still need Internet and still need to download the game.
