The rotating subscription system sees a whole host of games become available to Xbox users, cutting down the price players have to pay to play all of the newest games.

Back 4 Blood will retail for $60 (£50), and considering the Game Pass is $10 (£8) per month, that’s quite the saving.

Upon release, some players have reported that the game isn’t appearing on their Game Pass, or that they’re greeted with an error message when trying to sign in.

The simple fix for this is to run the game via the Microsoft Store, which is available in the “Start” menu on PCs. For consoles, you’ll want to hard restart – holding down the power button for 10 seconds – if you’re having issues.

tks, resolved. Exit game, Start menu, search and open Microsoft store, click back4blood. It will Auto Update. I spent an hour looking for a solution
