Hello, I hope you are well.

Please try these steps.

The problem seems to be in the way the Game Pass subscription is set up on the Xbox. Even if your friend has Game Pass and you can download games, they need to set their console as your primary console so that you can play games that require an active subscription with them.

How to fix it:

1. Check if your friend has set their console as their primary console:

Your friend needs to go to "Settings" > "General" > "My Xbox" and select their console as "Primary Console".

This allows you to play Game Pass games even when they are not connected.

2. Check the type of Game Pass subscription:

It is important to check if the subscription is "Game Pass Ultimate" or "PC Game Pass", as some versions may have restrictions.

The "Ultimate" subscription allows you to play Game Pass games on both PC and Xbox.

Your PC Game Pass subscription may have restrictions on games that require Xbox, such as Minecraft and R6, even with your primary console.

3. Review your Xbox settings:

After checking your primary console, try restarting your console and the game.

There may be a game or console update that may resolve the issue.

If the issue persists, contact Microsoft support.

You would need to set his console as your Home in order to share your Game Pass with him so he can play online.

Hello Isiah,

Thanks for reaching out to the forums. We understand you have question on sharing game pass. In short yes the game pass can be shared as long as the

home console set up on the main profile with the subscriptions. Take note that sometimes the second profile cant download games directly from the game pass list. If they click on see in Microsoft store then they can download it as game pass game.

Thanks,

Brad
