    2 different consoles using one account


    The new xbox series X|S has just recently been released and I currently own a xbox one. I want to buy the series s but also want to know if it would be possible to utilize both consoles at the same time and play the games I bought digitally on my Xbox
    One on both consoles at the same time.

    :)

    2 different consoles using one account

    Hi there

    you will be able to be signed on both consoles at once but you'll only able to play games on console at a time with the same account.

    If you want to play the games on both consoles at the same time you would have to have second account to do so.

    Regarding your game library you would need to set one of the consoles as a home console for your main account.

    Once that is done the 2nd account when logged into that specific console can play any games stored on it and you can just log into your other xbox on your main account and download what ever game you want to play thst you own

    Here is a support link with more information

    Designate a home xbox

    You can also search Google and other websites for the term "gamesharing"

    One xbox live acc on 2 Xbox’s

    Assuming you mean digital

    Ok lets call the xbox one x console 1 and the xbox one s is console 2

    Your account is account 1

    One kid is =account 2

    One kid is account 3

    Ok your account 1 makes console 2 its home console

    Account 1-3 can use any games on console 2 and play online

    Console 1 only your profile will be the roaming profile so.only account 1 can play online and use your game on that console 1 but must.be signed online

    Only one console can be home console.and only the account with thr live membership will be able to use it on any console

    So ideally you want to have only 2 accounts not a third one if you want them to play on two different consoles

    Using Same Account at Different Consoles

    Yes, and no. While you cannot be logged into two of the same Live enabled devices at the same time , you can be signed into cross platform LIVE enabled devices simultaneously.

    When I say "Live enabled devices", I mean Xbox One; Xbox 360; Windows Phone, Windows 8; Games for Windows - Live (note that GFWL cannot be singed in at the same time as Xbox 360, logging into one will sign you out of the other).

    You might also wish to note that this thread is nearly a year old, so you probably should have simply started your own thread.

    Can you have two consoles logged in at the same time on the same Xbox live profile?
