    Digital Game Sharing


    Hey,

    so I have a question it will take a bit of explaining so read carefully, may sound confusing

    if I have Console A and Console B, and I have Account A and Account B on both consoles

    I then purchase a game using Account A on Console A, and my friend downloads this game using my Account A which is signed in to his Console B,

    can we play the same digital version on 2 different consoles and 2 different accounts at the same time?

    :)

    Game sharing

    If you share account. You share games, apps, every subscriptions what you have..

    You share only digital games. No on disc. Only digital.

    The Microsoft Family Con!

    Regardless if Family settings, game sharing parameters still apply. So the digital games can only be shared on two consoles. In terms of buying the games directly from Microsoft that is not an issue as long as the game shared is in digital format, it really
    doesn't matter from what retailer you purchase the game as long as it is digital format.

    Sharing Digital Games

    you must own each console the game will be on, the console that is set as the home console will let any profile on there play the game and any other console you must be signed in with your profile, this is a grey area and can be deemed against the terms
    of use, sharing in the same household is much more common and I think should be ok, but game sharing with friends in different locations could technically be called market place theft.

    Digital game sharing

    Hey AlteredDart.

    Thank you for reaching out to the forum. That is not possible in the long run. You are only allowed to change your home consol 5 times pr. year. So i would recommend that shared purchases are done on that account.

    Sharing digital games

    Yes, it is called game sharing. To do this you need to sign in to your account on their Xbox, go to settings --> personalization --> my home xbox --> Make this Xbox my home Xbox. Now just sign in to your children's account(s), go to library, then full
    library, and they'll be able to download the games. Also, if you have a gold membership, they will have access to it too. Hope this helped!
