The five things your launcher needs before the Store accepts it
Five things. Miss one and the submission comes back.
The Partner Center account is free to create. Publishing your launcher is free. There is no registration fee, for individuals or for companies.
Pick Single Developer or Company verification. It takes days, and nothing ships until it clears. Start it first and do everything else while it runs.
Our policy, not Microsoft's. Launchers built with Game Launcher Cloud go on the Store at no charge.
Sell your game where you already sell it. The price on this listing covers the launcher, and the launcher is free.
At least four, each one a direct capture of your launcher running:
The home screen
Installing the game
Game or launcher settings
A news item open
Marketing art fails. So do title cards and anything with a slogan on it. The rejection cites policy 10.1.1.3 Inaccurate Representation:
The images submitted in the Metadata does not contain screenshots that are direct captures from the product.
Found In: Screenshots. In the following languages listings: English (United States)
The listing waits until you replace them.
Shoot PNG at 1920x1080. Capture the window as a player sees it: nothing behind it, no frame, no text on top.
Logos, promotional images and trailers are separate uploads on the same page. A designed image is exactly what those expect.
Each language listing carries its own screenshots, which is why the rejection names a language. Publish in several and check each one.
Certification plays your game, not just the launcher. Testers run its main features.
Game not ready to be reviewed? Say so in Notes for certification and ask them to review the launcher only.
Needs a login? Put the credentials in Notes for certification. Never in the description, where every shopper can read them.
