For a few days now my new release queue is only showing games that are marked Free to Play. The normal Discovery Queue is fine and shows games with a price. I've check filters but I can't see anything that should restrict it like this. Does anyone have the same issue or have a suggestion to fix it? Thanks.

Went through 1 queue and all were free or free to play and nothing with a price. Very weird and also the first and last time I will use it. Might be a bug or broken.

Yes it's doing the same for me. What I did notice going through it a few times was the dates are going backwards, i.e. they started off at the 6th Jan, then it dropped to the 5th Jan, then the 4th etc... it's possible the majority of January releases are FTP games and the queue is simply set to work on date of release and not a random selection over the last X weeks.

Doing the same for me for the past two months or more. I simply stopped checking it. Rechecked today and still stuck on Free games only. And now it's March, so not due to Free to Play January, if that was ever a thing.

Bumping because this is STILL a problem that needs to be fixed *desperately*.

My new release queue is also stuck only showing free games for the past few days at this point. This is still an issue. I will probably stop using it if this persists.

Same problem, bump. I don't remember when this started, but I used to use it to find niche games to my tastes. Now only showing me free games it's pretty much useless.
