2 Xbox in one house questions

Steve Arthur1 · Dec 25, 2023

Howdy, my son has a one S and my daughter just got the same for Xmas, trouble is I set it up via the app using the original login in my son has, but when my daughter plays a game on hers (even via disk) it kicks my son off and vice versa, how do I get around this? Is it because it’s the same login, do I need to add a new one? Any help appreciated

Thanks

:)

Hi,

yes she needs her own account cause it's not possible to play on two devices with the same account at the same time.

And she sure wants to have her own achievements, avatar, Gamertag and save files etc.

Yes, you will both be able to play together online on the same home internet connection without a problem.

If you haven't already, look into
Gold sharing features. You can set the old Xbox One as the "Home" console under your account, and just log in normally with your new Xbox One X. This way, you'll be able to play PUBG together with only one Gold subscription and one digital purchase of PUBG.

thanks. So move my existing xbox1 upstairs to his room and just sign into the new X and that should do it as long as I leave the 1 as the 'home' console?

Also, if he's wireless it should still be ok?

Question currently i have 2 xbox ones in the house only one console can be a family set up to share game pass and live with the family.

When I get the series X will this allow me to set the X and the one as 2 separate family devices?

Hi NareiMooncatt! My name is Ricardo an independent advisor ready to help you with this situation!

The account that has the subscription active can share that suscription in the console selected as the home Xbox of that account, once this is done, any account that you use in that console will have access to the service, as long as the account has that console as the home Xbox, only one home Xbox per account

The other console can use the account that has the subscription and the games while it's logged in
