    Family digital game sharnig


    Hello,

    Me and my brother have now two xbox one consoles at our household. Together we bought several digital copies of xbox one games.

    Now i'm wondering do we have to buy all these games again for the other xbox or is there any way that we can play games at both consoles at the same time?

    Thaks for your help!

    :)

    Digital "Trade Ins"

    I think if Family Sharing for Digital Games comes back then we are all onto a winner and see the Digital benefits even without a Trade in scheme.

    Being as there is no way to trade or sell 360 digital games, why don't they keep the X1 family sharing feature, but only for digital purchases on that platform.

    My Feedback To Todays Announcement

    You lose family share & you lose the ability to resell the game digitally for credit to apply towards another digital purchase.

    One Game on 2 console would need a Digital Game copy.

    So I'd suggest you purchase digital copies of games you'd like to play, and Game Share by setting the Xbox account to Family Account.

    Game sharing

    It's not supposed to "make things cheaper".

    It was a compromise to allow multiple family members to play a game one account bought digitally, so a digital game works similar to a physical disc game.

    If a game purchase were strictly tied to only one single user, families or similar household groups would be at a disadvantage compared to physical purchases.

    To make digital purchases more attractive to customers, they had to find a way to allow multiple users to use the same purchase, without allowing misuse.

    partition for xbox one?

    They just want the family sharing feature back, which only applies to your digital bought games.
