    Can games on a Game Pass be played at the same time on 2 different XBOX?


    I have an XBOX Series X, a Game Pass subscription, and 2 children who "share" my game pass subscription (the account is linked to my MS/XBOX account). There are multiplayer games in game pass, but they are not local multiplayer, they are online multiplayer. The kids want to play with each other at the same time.

    QUESTION: If I buy a 2nd XBOX, and set up the accounts of the kids on the 2nd XBOX, will they be able to play one of the multiplayer "game pass" games, with each other, at the same time on two different XBOXs?

    Thanks.

    :)

    Can games on a Game Pass be played at the same time on 2 different XBOX?

    Hello, Regarding your question it is a yes. You can play the same game at the same time using two different consoles; However, in order to do that you will need to be using two different profiles for each console.

    The first thing you need to do, is to set up the account that owns the subscription/game as a home Xbox on one console. That way you will be sharing the subscription on that Xbox and any account you sign in with on that console will be able to benefit from the subscription and the games that are on it.

    Then you will need to go on the other console and sign in with account that owns the subscription/game but do not make a home console. This way you can play the game at the same on two accounts with two different consoles.

    Can games on a Game Pass be played at the same time on 2 different computers.

    Hi there William, my name is Gerardo, and I'm an Xbox player, just like you. I'll be happy to assist you with any questions or concerns you may have.

    Yes, it should be possible to do so, but the procedure is different from what is done on Xbox consoles with the Home Xbox function. You can see the detailed and exact procedure that should be done on PC through the following link:

    https://support.xbox.com/help/account-profile/manage-account/gaming-and-store-accounts

    Just keep in mind that this is only allowed if your son and you live in the same household.

    I hope this helps, and if you have further questions, please let me know.

    Kind regards,
    Gerardo.

    Can I play the same game at the same time on 2 different consoles on 2 different accounts

    Hi there,

    as far as I'm aware it should be possible to play the same game at the same time on different devices via your own accounts, assuming there is no weirdness in the local network that may cause issues

    How to play different games on different consoles at the same time using 1 game pass profile

    If you are trying to do it on the same profile, then that is not possible. Profiles on Xbox One & Series X|S can only play games on one console at a time.

    If you are trying to let someone else play your Game Pass games on a different console at the same time as you, then you need to make the console that you want to share the games on the Home Xbox using the account that has Game Pass, then anyone with a different profile can play those games at the same time as you.

    Bear in mind the Home Xbox setting is only meant to be used in the same household, as using it with someone else not in your household can result in a suspension or ban.

    Trying to play on 2 Xbox's at the same time (2 different accounts, 2 different games)

    Hi there,

    what could be causing this, is that your account is also signed in on that other console, if so please sign out on that console to see if that helps.

    Let it know if there are any results
