Can 3 people play the same game when game sharing?

tazia smith · Sep 9, 2023

So me and my other 2 friends play on Xbox and we really wanna play 2k this year… so I was thinking I could buy the game then game share with my other 2 friends, is it possible for 3 people to play the same game when game sharing under the same person?

You can only share games in the same household on one console. If you share games to another household, then you are basically breaking Xbox rules, and can be suspended or banned for doing it.

No not really, unless two out of three are on split screen on the same console, (i dont play that game idk if it even has split screen).

So no not really.

Game sharing outside your physical household is a violation of TOS and can lead to account and hardware bans.

Family sharing was a joke. What good is it if you can't play the game at the same time. Family sharing = 1 console playing at a time. Not buy 1 game and have all 4 consoles in you house playing together. Are you going to wait 2 weeks for cousin Jim to beat
Halo5 so he can share it with you? Not me I want to play it ONLINE on the day of LAUNCH with my FAMILY. Not possible w/ family sharing. People are so uneducated.

Agreed. A lot of people misunderstood family sharing. I'm glad it's gone TBH. If it were to be released, people would be b*tching because you can't play the same game at the same time, just saved a whole bunch of complainers.

Although usually more expensive to purchase initially, digital games do allow for you to share them out so you can have 2 people playing the same game at the same time.
