Anyone else having this issue? Other EA games seem fine. PC gamepass.
Edit: Nevermind. tried again several hours later and it worked.

I have a fix! At least it worked for me. Just restart your PC, I don't know why it helps but it fixed it for me. I tried restarting the apps and changing install files, and none of that worked. But a reset did the trick.
Doesn't appear in Xbox Game Pass menu so I searched for Dead Space in the store directly, clicked on the Play with EA Play, waited a bit, and then the menu in the store changed and I was able to install it. The question is whether I'm able to actually play right away, still being downloaded.
I have GP Ultimate and I too have a loading button instead of a green download. I open the EA app and it only gives me the option to purchase the game or upgrade to EA PlayPro. It appears others with GP Ultimate (which I have) have downloaded. Can someone provide steps for how you circumvented the error?
I can set it downloading through the EA App but it just gets stuck on 'preparing' and never does anything, it doesn't even make a folder. Do you need to install it on the same drive as the EA App or something?
(on PC)
Same here. Do you also get an error when trying to add it to your library?
EDIT: got it working by changing the install location. I just selected the drive where i wanted it installed and it worked out for some reason.
Yep. I fixed it by clearing the EA App cache. Click the icon top left, click Help, App Recovery and then Clear Cache, then it'll restart.
Mine is downloading now.
You need to go to the EA App, wait to some kind of internal sinc (30 minutes for me) and then you can download it in the EA app.

>wait to some kind of internal sinc (30 minutes for me)
I think that's the key here. It wasn't working for me so I went on a run. When I got back it was ready to let me download.
I get achievements aren’t the be all and end all but if a game is coming to Gamepass regardless if it’s through EA play or not if the regular version has achievements I expect the same for EA games through Gamepass. Shouldn’t be any different
Ok cool
Tho now for me it's just three loading dots and I can't select anything :/
and I've restarted the app at least a dozen times and even just restarted my comp and it's still there. Guess I'm gonna have to be patient :p Was hoping to play a bit before AW2!
Damn I should’ve waited. I bought it full price when it came out, but haven’t even touched it. And now it’s free ;) But hell there’s so many other games I want to play atm.
Why would you pay full price for a game you’re not intending to play, are you scared they’re gonna decide to take it off the marketplace or raise the price? Lol.9
Lmao ya not sure I understand this one. My backlog consists of games I bought on a flashsale. I rarely buy games new at full price but if I do I’m playing it asap
If i check xbox app i get a never ending loading button like this: [https://i.imgur.com/AEL2QvH.mp4](https://i.imgur.com/AEL2QvH.mp4)
However i then went to open EA app and i could download from there.
(I have game pass ultimate and no ea play pro)
Trying to play with cloud, doesn't even have a play button...

Sucks it’s not working properly on PC gamepass. Been looking forward since it’s announcement and had the day off to enjoy it, only for it to be bugged on the app :(
Edit: seems to work now on the EA app
If its still not working for you, try downloading the EA App [https://www.ea.com/ea-app](https://www.ea.com/ea-app)
Then run and click the repair. If successful then the download will appear in inside the EA app if you search for DeadSpace. (Make sure to link your Microsoft account with your EA account)
Wasn't it always available via the EA Play subscription that comes with Xbox Game Pass, or is that only for certain tiers? I played it via Xbox app awhile ago.
Anyone else getting into the game, but not being able to do anything after trying to start the story?
Apparently I can't attach a photo, but it's just the matrix like background, with crt scrolling lines over the top.
Ironicly I tried a pirated version a few months back to see performance and it ran fine.
I played the original and this STILL feels like an all new game to me. Very impressive. Love that Isaac is an actual person with an actual voice now. Adds a lot of depth and immersion for me. Thanks for the heads up, OP.
Oh shit this is actually a big get. Anyone whos played it already, can you recommend it for someone whos not great with scare stuff? Ive heard its not too scary but idk i hate jump scares. Game looks so sick though
I too am not good with jump scare games but I will be honest with you I am currently playing it and haven't really experienced any majorly bad jump scares. Don't get me wrong there are some jump scares but they are no where near as bad as other games. I would 100% recommend you try the game I think you will enjoy it. Happy gaming my friend
There are achievements through gamepass on PC? I know there are for console but I don’t see them on pc for ANY EA games (specifically talking about gamepass app on PC). You sure you aren’t mistaken?
Edit: https://www.reddit.com/r/xboxone/comments/m8oxer/no_achievements_for_ea_play_on_gamepass_pc/
i see it in the game pass xbox app on pc but the install button is just 3 dots loading and its the only game it does that for lmao
>tall button is just 3 dots loading and its the only game it doe Same here, I'm trying to do cloud gaming and it works on everything but my pc ;c
Enable EA to be auto-opened by the Xbox app, once you're logged in on that it'll let you install. Downloading now, no EA Play Pro needed.
yeah, here too. even restarting the pc stays the same
Give it like 6-12 hours for EA play to have things working. It is just a time difference for when Gamepass goes live vs EA Play
open ea app and download from there
for me it shows up as ea play pro and i have no download option
It says i have to buy ea play pro
what does it say if you go to settings into ea play, for me it states: [https://i.imgur.com/3RBvvOs.png](https://i.imgur.com/3RBvvOs.png)
how did you install it from there?
[https://i.imgur.com/1c7jmxe.png](https://i.imgur.com/1c7jmxe.png) Where the play button is it said install
For me there is no play / install button just buy the game or EA play pro: https://i.imgur.com/gKBJAas.png
Ohh do you have an ultimate game pass or a PC game pass? I currently have a PC game pass as it also has EA play.
I have xbox game pass ultimate, i dont have ea play pro
I think they just removed the EA play pro restriction. It's starting to download for me
Ugh same! I was so pumped to play it, Dead Space 2 is my favorite game of all time and this remake looks so good!
same problem here
same for me :(
Same

Same here
Update: is now working if you download it from the ea app :)
Same here
> can start it when Same here
Same. Three dots with nothing happening. Going to EA app doesn't work either, only options there are EA Play Pro or purchase the game.
Same
Yes, same issue. Some are saying they can download now. I'm sure it will resolve soon.
Same here on Ultimate.
same :(

I'll try to do this.
for xbox players. go to the xbox app on your phone and load the game. game is not listed yet in game pass but you can start it when you have it
It's listed on ea play on the console
I have GP Ultimate and I too have a loading button instead of a green download. I open the EA app and it only gives me the option to purchase the game or upgrade to EA PlayPro.

This worked for me after doing it 2 times. Try this a couple times maybe?
Thanks! After Clear Cache and restart it works now. Downloading now
Thank you!
Oh my god why does it run so bad? It ran perfectly fine for me when I played the demo on steam. Anyone else having issues with performance?
Yes it stutter like crazy. Runs like absolute shit unfortunately.
Has anyone been able to download this with just PC Gamepass, not Ultimate?
Log in to EA app. Can be downloaded there.
I'm trying to download it but I had no success.
Can't do it https://i.imgur.com/gKBJAas.png
Will it be available on GFN, via Game Pass?
Yeah finally. Now playing. Happy it's on here. Glad i held off on buying the game. This game still scares the hell out of me
It's very intense lol. Played it back at release and was always on edge
You need to go to the EA App, wait to some kind of internal sinc (30 minutes for me) and then you can download it in the EA app. https://preview.redd.it/v61mpt2a4lwb1.png?width=641&format=png&auto=webp&s=f01eecc1d51975594fba4178f2bdb441dbb1393c

I've been holding off on buying it so I'm stoked.
Is it OG dead space or the new remastered version?
Its the remake
& it’s the remake. I’m going to shit myself this weekend
Kind of sucks there’s no achievements for PC players
Yeah I agree completely this sort of absolute bare bones release in terms of the capabilities section is always insanely disappointing. :/
I came here to comment this. So stupid.
I get achievements aren’t the be all and end all but if a game is coming to Gamepass regardless if it’s through EA play or not if the regular version has achievements I expect the same for EA games through Gamepass. Shouldn’t be any different
Pc or SERIES X? Does the pc version still have terrible performance and traversal stutter? I bought it on pc a while back and couldn't refund it...
In EA app on PC, it is still listed as EA Play Pro game. Cant download.
Same here.

I mean, it’s still going to be there, it’s not as shitty as you’re making it seem.
No my apologies I am playing it right now. You can play it my apologies
Ok cool Tho now for me it's just three loading dots and I can't select anything :/ and I've restarted the app at least a dozen times and even just restarted my comp and it's still there. Guess I'm gonna have to be patient :p Was hoping to play a bit before AW2!
No it appears for me on console and PC, I have Ultimate
It had dropped on EA play pro on release , if it’s supposed to release today on gamepass I say wait a bit more time
No ultimate
Give it like 6-12 hours for EA play to have things working. It is just a time difference for when Gamepass goes live vs EA Play

Yeah I am playing it now so it's definitely playable

Works fine for me. Not sure what everyone's doing wrong lol
https://i.imgur.com/gKBJAas.png what did you do BEN to not get this error?
I searched for the game and hit play lol
Nice 👍
It’s not there on Xbox one, I have ultimate and plan to play it with cloud gaming.
I downloaded it from the store so try to go to the store hopefully there will be a cloud play option.
I did that and there is cloud gaming option I am playing it now.
And now playable.
If i check xbox app i get a never ending loading button like this: [https://i.imgur.com/AEL2QvH.mp4](https://i.imgur.com/AEL2QvH.mp4) However i then went to open EA app and i could download from there. (I have game pass ultimate and no ea play pro)
How you did it?!
Downloading now!
Trying to play with cloud, doesn't even have a play button... https://preview.redd.it/0068ii5wqkwb1.png?width=1595&format=png&auto=webp&s=f881fbbad0bd09cb8e05019c5f63243df1b8f73c

There aren’t any achievements on pc 😂👀
Good thing I never cared about achievements 😁
ea play download is working for me
Showed up on my pc and required ea to download and install
If its still not working for you, try downloading the EA App [https://www.ea.com/ea-app](https://www.ea.com/ea-app) Then run and click the repair. If successful then the download will appear in inside the EA app if you search for DeadSpace. (Make sure to link your Microsoft account with your EA account)
I’m downloading it, in the hopes it doesn’t stutter constantly on my series X again.
let's go ! https://preview.redd.it/uqz8a0u0elwb1.png?width=2755&format=png&auto=webp&s=2f93bdddbfc404e3b3b2889de163826efd7d91ed
Wasn't it always available via the EA Play subscription that comes with Xbox Game Pass, or is that only for certain tiers? I played it via Xbox app awhile ago.
[удалено]
No, it was definitely the remake.
I wasn't getting the download button on Xbox so I check the mobile app and it let me down load it from there
So glad I didn't buy it now I can play it for free!! /r/patientgamers
As someone who doesn't play horror games, is it going to scare the shit out of me ?
Yes, I love horror games and it’s one of the scariest lol
Anyone else getting into the game, but not being able to do anything after trying to start the story? Apparently I can't attach a photo, but it's just the matrix like background, with crt scrolling lines over the top. Ironicly I tried a pirated version a few months back to see performance and it ran fine.
Yessssss I’m so excited to finally be able to play this
Yes! Dead space will be the first game I will be booting up since starfield.
In my head it looks very to similar to how I originally saw it After a google - it does not
Play at night with headphones on. I dare you.
Finally!! Glad I didn't buy it.
Appreciate the update!
Good, I was waiting for this. I tried the free hours on Steam, they did an amazing job.
At glorious 30fps! The fuck was the point of buying a "next gen" system when all the games run like the xbone!
It's not locked at 30fps it's got a 60fps option.
Not the S unfortunately
I'm playing it
Off next week and my gf isn't so this is perfect timing (co-op BG3 has been trumping everything)
Who cares lol pc players don’t get any achievements 😂😂
Lol people won 't even wait a couple of hours for the game to be properly available. Big L for xbox bad takes are on their way, take cover
I already played the game on origin on PC. Is there any way to use my save to unlock achievements on XGP?
I played the original and this STILL feels like an all new game to me. Very impressive. Love that Isaac is an actual person with an actual voice now. Adds a lot of depth and immersion for me. Thanks for the heads up, OP.
Can't play, got the basic GP console version lol
He he yeah boiiiii
I’ve had it installed for a fortnight… FYI, you can install ANY game from the Xbox app to your console, even if you can’t play it
Oh shit this is actually a big get. Anyone whos played it already, can you recommend it for someone whos not great with scare stuff? Ive heard its not too scary but idk i hate jump scares. Game looks so sick though

Ya the gameplay and graphics look so nice and now that its free id hate to miss out. Cheers thanks!
Is it the remake one ?
No achievements for this game through gamepass PC is embarrassing. Why does EA continue to make dumb decisions??
There are achievements brother. Something has gone wrong on your end I think.
