  1. Game Pass Family


    My wife and i have 6 kids. We all play xbox in the evening which means having to buy 8 copies of any game we want to play as a family.

    On new releases this is especially ridiculous.

    I know last year there was a trial run of Gamepass friends & family.

    I cannot find any updated information as of May 2024. Has there been any announcements of when such a platform might launch permanently?

    I realize we are an atypical setup, and no one seems to be breaking their backs for the comfort of large families, but it means a lot to us.

    :)

    Adicionei um membro à família mas ele não tem acesso ao GamePass[Translation-I added a member to the family but he doesn't have access to GamePass]

    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?

    Xbox Live Gold access on single 'home' Xbox Series S for family member

    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.

    Exclusive: Microsoft is moving ahead with an Xbox Game Pass Family Plan | Windows Central

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

    Help Please

    Online Passes are Game Specific, so if you got a pass with a game say Gears of War 3 and your son has his own gamertag he can play it, though Family Gamertags are also age specific, so you'd have to make sure to give his gamertag adult privileges. You could
    play your game online and he could play his, though if he wants to use a game you already used the online pass for you'd have to purchase a new one.

    A new online pass usually costs 800 Microsoft Points.

    Family Passes allow playing of games on more of one console as long as both consoles have a Gold Account even with the Family Pass, the only difference between Family Pass and Regular Gold is that with a Family Pass the owner of the account can control the
    content on the Child or Family Account.
