I can't redownload Skyrim on my Xbox

So I accidently deleted Skyrim off of it. I originally put the skyrim code for the game on my other account but I deleted the account. The game worked on my new account also but now I deleted it and can't get it back. Looked on download history and searched the game and I have to buy it.

Best Answer

Ownership of a digital game is tied to the account. If there is no account on a console that owns the game, you can't download it- there's essentially no difference between you and someone who has never bought Skyrim in their life.

Your only options at this stage are either recovering the old account or buying a new copy of Skyrim.
