I'm afraid that isn't possible. The game can only be played with the account that bought it.

Hope this helps.

Hello there! I hope everything is going well for you!

Regarding your issue, since the game was purchased on another account the only way to play it would be to sign in on that account. However, if you are playing the game on the Xbox you can try using the game sharing feature.

Hello sixian yellow,

Thank you for contacting the Xbox Support forums. I understand that you are attempting to change the email bound to your Minecraft account but you can’t find the email address registered by Minecraft.

Please refer to Changing Your Email Address. If you do not have access to the email linked to your account, you can have it changed by passing a security challenge. If you are unable to change your Mojang account email, you may contact Minecraft Support at Minecraft Support - Contact Us.

Thank you,
