When you buy an Xbox Play Anywhere digital game through the Xbox Store or the Windows Store, it�s yours to play on both Xbox One and Windows 10 PC at no additional cost. To take advantage of Xbox Play Anywhere, you will need to have installed the Windows 10 Anniversary Edition update on your PC, as well as the latest update on your Xbox One console. Then, simply log into your Xbox Live/Microsoft account and your Xbox Play Anywhere games will be available to download.

So wait, are you saying I do need the console at time of purchase to validate PC download?

No from what I gather you just need to buy it either via the Xbox or Microsoft store and it's then yours for both linked via your Microsoft account!

Especially if I adopt the same tactic as on 360 where my persona was the sexy buxom female, I found this got me revived far quicker than when playing as one of the male characters

I like the way you think Bernadette.

So you can play Horde mode, PC vs Xbone?

From that link -
"So, in theory, someone can buy the Xbox One version of Gears of War 4, play it on console, and then have a friend over to play co-op on their PC"

Can that be right, would be surprised if you can be logged into the game on both PC and XBOX with same ID?
Maybe it's a hardware version equivalant of having a guest account playing split screen on a console.

The Lilly Savage effect, lol!

On the Microsoft website it say's you can only play the game on one device at a time.
