Handheld guidance: If you are redeeming on an eligible handheld device and your handheld starts in XBOX mode, exit to the Windows desktop first.

ESRB ratings and redemption guidance: Each game has its own rating and age requirements. Microsoft account settings and family safety controls still apply.
We recommend claiming the 25 Years of XBOX Bundle with a Microsoft account for a user who is 18 or older. Age-restricted games remain tied to the claiming account and become playable only when the account meets the applicable age requirements.
Game availability, compatibility, features, and performance vary by device, hardware, storage, operating system, input method, and game requirements.
