Why Does My Game Show a Missing License Symbol But Still Lets Me Play?

-

I just picked up ‘Deus Ex: Human Revolution’ today with a couple of bucks left on an old gift card, but when I downloaded it, I saw a missing license symbol. Even though it’s showing that, I’m still able to play the game. Does this mean I don’t actually own it or is something else going on?

That missing license symbol is usually just a glitch, a common one at that! It doesn’t mean you don’t own the game. Most of the time, a full reboot of your console will sort it out. As long as you can play without issues, you should be good! We’ve been waiting for an update that addresses some of these annoying UI bugs too.
