In this practical tip, we explain how to install games on Xbox One. We'll go into both installing a disc and installing downloaded games.
Xbox One: Install game from disc
- Start your Xbox One and insert the corresponding game into the designated drive.
- Your Xbox One automatically detects if the game is already installed. If this is not the case, you can install the game using the corresponding button on the hard drive of your console.
- Under certain circumstances, the download of updates may also be due. Your console will automatically inform you of this when you are connected to the Internet.
Xbox One: Install game downloads
- After downloading from the Xbox Game Store, the corresponding games are automatically installed if there is enough free space.
- You can find out the current status under the menu item "My games and apps" under "Queue".
- Most games can be started during the installation. To do this, go to the queue and check whether the status is indicated as "Ready to start".
