Windows 10: Sea of Thieves isn’t available in MS

I want to download Sea of Thieves on my computer but this option isn’t available in the Microsoft Store. The problem is that I purchased Xbox Game Pass and played this game before on the Xbox. I tried to install the game from the internet browser Microsoft Store, it initialized in the Microsoft Store app, but gave an error when I was validating my licence. If it is important, I’ve purchased a game in the US but live in EU now.

I cannot download Sea of Thieves on PC from microsoft store.

Hi Christopher,

Sorry for the delayed response. We identified this issue regards downloading Sea of Thieves from Windows Store App and we still working on it to fix the problem. As a workaround, we suggest following the steps below:

• Cancel all existing download on the Store app.
• Start the download of Sea of Thieves once again.
• As soon as the download starts, immediately restart the computer.
  
• After the reboot, do not launch the Store app instead wait for the passive download which you can check in the Action Center. Then it will automatically install by itself and then open the game without any issues.
  

For any results, please let us know.
