Skyrim free for pc if I own XBox One edition?

[LoLzKitten]

Hello! I read that I can get Skrim for pc free if I own the XBox One edition, but I can't figure out how. I did purchase it for XBox. If I can get it free for pc, how do I do that?

Not via Steam. I'd guess you'd need to look in Microsoft store or Xbox app.

As Skyrim is not supported with Play Anywhere through Microsoft, so you can't get the PC version with out purchasing it.

Seems the Play Anywere is for X-box exclusives (from what I can find).

Yep, you had to have owned Skyrim and all it's DLC on Steam to get that. Owning it on any other system doesn't count for the free copy. You also had to own it before the Special Edition was released.

That was two years ago, even if he had the original PC version it would be useless now.

There's some non-first party Play Anywhere tiles. Capcom seems to have embrased it, both Resident Evil 7 and Marvel Vs Capcom are Play Anywhere.

Good to know.

I don't own an X-box (or buy form the MS store), so I just did a quick Google search.

The play anywhere for xbox only works if its on the MS store. which .... god is terrible beyond belief

thus even if a title is play anywhere on xbox, it would only be availabl eon Windows 10 on the MS store. Not on steam
