Moved to Forum: Original Link

Microsoft has de-listed the game and removed it from user's libraries. The game is not meant to be free, according to a message sent to Xbox users who claimed this for free previously.

Spotted on HUKD. Could be a price error as it's appearing as US$39.99 for Nintendo Switch.

Add to cart and then check out via PC.

Workaround for PC.

Add to cart in UK store and then checkout. You’ll still own the game when you change back to Aussie store.

            @b2dz: Click on the cart but where to open cart?

            Found it, have to open cart from the other game, didn't work to open cart from this game.

            At first still something went wrong, after re-try and done.

  • flumpf on 22/09/2022 - 20:19

    It's throwing an error here.

    • Grey 13 on 22/09/2022 - 20:21

    No XBOX won't work on PC

  • meatgasm on 22/09/2022 - 20:31

    It worked on SeriesX, through the console store.

    For those trying to do it via web browser (ie. not on Xbox), I just managed to do it on my phone in the AU store:

    1. Click ‘Add to Cart’. It seems like nothing has happened, but it’s actually added it to your cart. It just doesn’t TAKE you to the cart.

    2. Add something else to your cart. eg. I hit the search button (magnifying glass) in the top left of the page and searched ‘Grand Theft’ and hit the first result. I added ‘Grand Theft Auto 5 Story Mode’ to my cart. And then the button became ‘Open Cart’, so I clicked it.

    3. Once you’re taken to your cart, remove everything other than Yum Yum Cookstar and checkout.

    Give it 24hrs and MS will revert this like pretty much all other pricing mistakes.

    UK work around worked for me. Thought I was missing the obvious cart button. This is the link for the AU cart https://www.xbox.com/en-AU/cart You can add it to cart then go here.

  • Twisty on 22/09/2022 - 21:00

    Thanks after doing the add to cart and then added something else and remove it worked

    Is this like overcooked?

    • ShouldIBuyIt on 22/09/2022 - 21:58

      Success!
      Thank you for your purchase.
      This product is now available to you.

      Didn't have to do any of the workaround in the above comments. I've got game pass tho…

    • Miss B on 22/09/2022 - 22:28

      No idea, don't even have an xbox anymore.

      Was showing on the XBOX One S MS Store, but wasn't able to get for free or add to cart. Guess I was a bit late to it. Tried on phone and iPad and got errors on both AU and UK stores, so they must've taken it down?

  • beebul on 23/09/2022 - 08:10

    So… Do we own it or did it get pulled?

    Is there a way to see all the xbox games you own? I think there was someway on PC but I forget.

    • ShouldIBuyIt on 23/09/2022 - 08:19

      Yes on the Xbox app.
      My library> Games, then filter "OWNED GAMES".
      I can't see it anymore.

      • beebul on 23/09/2022 - 08:19

        Thanks… We got cooked

        • ShouldIBuyIt on 23/09/2022 - 08:21

          Looks like the whole game is game. Can't look it up and the OP's link is a 404

  • Twisty on 28/09/2022 - 17:07

    Did anyone able to download it?

  • metalhead on 21/10/2022 - 10:31

    Got message on Xbox app today, saying it was never intended to be free, they're taking it back off "My games and apps" etc etc.

      Me too, didn't have an xbox when I bought it and didn't know what it was. Now have an xbox, thankfully didn't buy to play this game, or even remember that I'd 'bought' this.

    • CPV on 21/10/2022 - 19:06

      Same.
