  1. Does my 8 year old need his own account to play his games locally?


    I created an account to set up my 8 year olds new Xbox one s. I am not a gamer. My 8 year old will not be playing on line. Does he need his own account to start playing any of his new games?

    :)

    How do I do this? I want to share a game with other members of my family that use different Xbox consoles

    Does it matter who installs the game? Me, my oldest son, and my youngest son all have different accounts but we belong to the same family account.

    My oldest son uses the Home console and signs into that console with his own account. My youngest son has his own console and signs into that console with a different account. If my oldest son installs the game on the Home console will my youngest son be
    able to see the game on his own console while signed in with his account? Or does my oldest son have to sign on to both consoles?

    He would either have to use the account you set up or use one you create just for him.

    Trying to create a 2nd account for my son.

    Your son will need his own E-mail address for a gold or silver xbox live account. Alternatively you can just create him a local account until he's old enough for his own E-mail address and online gaming.

    My 8 year old son would love a minecraft friend, his xbox gold account was started just today. He plays nice and is not a bully, and I monitor his gameplay. His gt is CYMON013106. Thanks :)

    Xbox Sharing not working

    Hello, if the game was purchased on his account, you need to set his account as your home xbox in order to play the game.
    I did make his account my own and it still does not show
