    Digital Games purchased when selling a console...


    I am about to sell my Xbox 360 console and games so that I can switch to Xbox one. However, I am not 100% sure of what will happen with all the digital games saved on my Xbox.

    If I delete all information about the accounts used so far on this xbox, the digital games should all still remain, right? (e.g. Destiny, Dead Island, Minecraft, etc.)

    So in theory I would be selling an xbox + all the games I have purchased digitally?

    Also... I bought Destiny and its expansions on the 360 digitally. This gives me free access to download the xbox one versions, since I bought it when it came out, and such offer existed. Correct?

    I simply need confirmation that what I think to be true is in fact true haha! Thank you in advance.

    :)

  2. Digital Games on my XBOX selling

    Night Night!

    I am in the process of selling my XBOX ONE S, I have 2 physical games and 3 digital games, when I restore the console, digital games and physical games can be installed for those who buy the console, without having my account ??

    The digital games are a PLUS on my selling, but I dont know how do I keep them installed without my account

    I remain attentive to your comments, thank you!

    Xbox one digital games

    I purchased games from sellers on ebay that the sellers have the accounts with the games on it ready to download and install well Microsoft just confirmed to me that some sellers are not genuine and are violating the terms so Microsoft have removed my digital
    games purchased from a third party selling site. And they have proven my point that they want more money from people. So a huge warning please don't buy digital games from a third selling source and you may loose all your digital games just like i have.
    I'm just an innocent buyer that Microsoft have taken my games now I'm out of pocket of money and games.

    Digital Games purchased when selling a console...

    On the 360 any game you purchase digitally is licensed to both the gamertag and the console. That means the licenses would remain with that console regardless of ownership.

    However, to see a console with the digital games attached is considered Marketplace Theft as you are attempted to provide them to a person that hadn't initially purchased them. This could result in both the console and/or your gamertag being banned from
    the Live service if caught.

    If you are planning on selling the console I would definitely recommend clearing the hard drive entirely to prevent this from happening.

    Selling an xbox one with digital games

    You can't sell digital games. It would be best to just factory reset the console. The digital games go with the account that purchased them.

    Xbox games

    Digital purchases are tied to your account and the purchases and account cannot transfer ownership. So if you were to sell the console, you could not give away the games as well.

    Factory reset my Xbox one S with games and apps

    Digital purchases cannot transfer ownership so you can't sell the games, but you can reset the console by going through Settings, System, and Console Info.

    Sold xbox- games included, factory restored!

    the first reply is your answer, selling the all digital and resetting console to factory does not guarantee the sale of games you have purchased.
