Games and Sharing them!

If I buy a game with one account, can my other account use it? Like if I preorder Battlefield One, can my other account use to code to get the game instead of the one I use to pre order it? Like, my main accounts age is accidentally 13. So I had to make
a parent account. And if I buy it with the parent account can I use the game and all its DLCs on my main account if I buy it with the parent one?

Game/Family Sharing doesn’t seem to be working.

not everything applies to game sharing

Ingame items is one of them and it's case by case and is profile specific

Game sharing is mostly for Dlc not Ingame items

 

The Incredible Adventures of Van Helsing

I agree, started playing these games about a year ago and love them... Thank you for sharing your thoughts.

 

Hi there,

If the purchasing account has a console marked as it's home console all accounts on that console can play the purchasing account's games.

You may be able to correct the birthdate on your main account now and then promote it to an adult account so you can do the purchase on your main account. Steps on how to do that can be found here:

windows.microsoft.com/.../child-birthdate-microsoft-account

Let us know if that helps.

 

Hi Arcadiouse,

Unfortunately the second bit of information Mistress Sara has shared isn't quite correct here.

Once the birth date on an account is set it cannot be changed through those methods to be promoted. All that date will do is change the way it appears on the profile but won't change the actual age of the account. It would be best to reach out to the chat
or phone team for official Xbox Support if your account was setup incorrectly:
support.xbox.com/.../contact-us

If that isn't the right phone number for your region, be sure to change the locale of that page at the very bottom-left and then select your right region.
