Hello!

I would like to know if I can play Ark Survival Evolved if I buy the game on my xbox account on pc then I play on my xbox one with the same account but not at the same time but on the same game? And then replay it when I'm on my PC without buying it twice?

It should work, the game is part of the Play Anyhwere program: https://www.xbox.com/games/xbox-play-anywhere

Microsoft/Ark please stop updating the game client version on one console and not the other. AKA PC/Xbox. It's the weekend and I can't even play with my wife..?? Update all game client versions at the same time when they are all ready it is that simple.

It can we play the same game at the same time?

Hi,Chris! I'm Luis, a fellow Xbox Gamer . Thanks for reaching us out here.

You just need to use the "home xbox " feature.

Withe the account that owns the game on the other console please:

Press the Xbox button  on your controller to open the guide.

Select Profile & system > Settings > General > Personalization, and then select My home Xbox.

Select Make this my home Xbox.

After that games and subcription bought with that account will be shared with the other console

Yes Chris. But you need two accounts for that.
