Game Pass Family Plan New Details

It sounds like you're sharing his subscription through the Home setting on the console and not an actual family plan. If that is the case, you will only have access to this subscription on the console.

If you live in one of the regions where the Game Pass Ultimate Friends and Family Plan is currently available (Colombia, Chile, Hungary, Ireland, Israel, New Zealand, South Africa, and Sweden) your dad would specifically need to purchase that plan and not just regular Game Pass Ultimate and then add you to the plan as well. https://support.xbox.com/en-US/help/subscriptions-billing/manage-subscriptions/xbox-game-pass-friends-family-faq

From what I understand Games Pass isn't a sharable thing, and because Xbox Gold has come with Games Pass it also mustn't be shareable, because of this, Microsoft is rumoured to be bringing out a family plan for Games Pass so it can be shared with family members.

Hopefully this will be officially announced soon as I think a lot of families out there would make use of it.

Hi! My name is Ben an Independent advisor and an Xbox gamer. Hope you are doing well!

About the upgrade, if your current plan is an Xbox Game Pass Ultimate, you just need to buy the Xbox Game Pass Family to upgrade it. Kindly try to upgrade via https://www.xbox.com/en-za/games/store/xbox-gam... page.

Joining this plan will convert the time remaining on your membership to time in the new plan, based upon the monetary value of the old membership. For example, a full month of Ultimate will be converted to 18 days of membership for this plan. This way you won’t lose any of the remaining value on your existing subscription. Conversion is final, and users must wait for their new membership to expire before returning to a previous membership.

More details about this subscription can be found at https://news.xbox.com/en-us/2023/02/21/xbox-gam...

Once you are done upgrading, you can find the details how to share and manage your family plan via https://support.xbox.com/en-US/help/subscriptio...

I hope these information helps somehow. Feel free to let us know if you have further questions or concerns and we will try with our knowledge to offer assistance.

Kind regards,

Ben

A family plan is in testing right now. https://www.windowscentral.com/microsoft-moving-ahead-xbox-game-pass-family-plan

But my subscription is for Game Pass Ultimate and not for Game Pass for PC... My family should have access to the games, right? Otherwise, what is the family plan for?
