Xbox + Steam / Connected Accounts? Question

[Danny]

Hello,

Just wondering before I make a purchase here on steam.. If I download through the Xbox App on game pass will I be able to link / connect progress to this account if I purchase here on steam?

Money is quite tight at the moment, and was just wondering if this was the case as i'm already paying for game pass.

Thanks

Just wait until the game is officially released. The game is available in the standard edition in Game Pass.

Therefore, it makes zero sense to buy it on Steam.

That didn't really answer my question at all lol you just kinda said a whole lotta nothing I already know this lol

Yes.

I purchased the game on Steam, refunded it, then re-purchased it on a key site which I redeemed on the Xbox Store (saved €30 in the process).

The game remembered my progression and the majority of my settings also.

I did encounter a bug where all the cars I owned are now duplicated so I now have 2 of each car in my inventory - the game seems to think I purchased the premium version twice, which I kind of did, but its kind of annoying. When I select the "Steam" version of the car, the game says that I purchased it on a different platform, and I cannot use that version. So the duplicates are just sitting there taking up inventory space and can't be used.

i can confirm what Grand has written

Yes you'll be able to link your Xbox Game Pass progress with your Steam bough game, as long as you use the same Xbox account when you choose to login on the Steam version of the game.

To play this game online you'll need an Xbox account regardless of platform. So long as you use the same account, everything should stay saved in cloud.

I answered it pretty well. There's no point in buying the game on Steam if you'll soon get it on Game Pass.

It simply doesn't make sense.
