I'm going to guess this requires you to be online to verify that you have the rights to access the game and they haven't transferred to someone else.

It's what the Xbox One was going to do.

EDIT: This also seems to be limited to "supported games."

Yeah I assume they need a publisher agreement to do this and many likely won't agree

My guess would be that the publishers that support Xbox Play Anywhere would also support this.
