Why Does Xbox Game Pass Download So Slow?
Internet speed is often the main culprit. Make sure you're not downloading during peak hours and that other devices aren't hogging all your bandwidth!

Check if your console's software needs an update, and always use a wired connection if possible for the fastest speeds.
I've noticed downloads are slower when I'm streaming or playing online games at the same time. Try giving the download your full bandwidth by pausing other activities.
Sometimes it's the Xbox Live servers themselves. They can get a bit slow when lots of people are trying to download the latest hit game at once.
Hot take: It's probably your Wi-Fi. A wired connection can make a world of difference!
