Gold Live on two Xbox One consoles

very simple question (googled but see a variety of answers)...

My kids play fortnite, we have a single xbox one console with gold live, they want another xbox one for Christmas so they can play at the same time with each other. I refuse to pay for another xbox gold live account. Is it possible for them to play together
with different gamer tags but the same gold account on different consoles at the same time. Assume if yes we can also share the games they have purchased.

Thanks!

:)

Yeah, that's confirmation the system stays the same as now, you get two licenses with each digital copy, one for your home console, one for your Xbox Live profile.

 

Looking at buying two new 360s for my sons for Christmas Xbox Live Gold Question

It is true that in preparation for the Xbox One launch the family plan was discontinued and existing users were converted to standard LIVE Gold accounts. Reason being, the Xbox One is capable of enabling an Xbox LIVE Home Gold account instead. The Xbox
LIVE Home Gold service allows ANY profile that logs into your Xbox One console to have access to your live services. I see the dilemma for you is that you want two Xbox(s) for two children. If it is not possible for them to share an Xbox One, then you really
only have the option of purchasing two consoles and two standard LIVE Gold memberships. As for Netflix, if you only have one console and one LIVE Gold membership, you can only watch Netflix on that console. But, it you have two consoles and two LIVE Gold
memberships, you should be able to watch Netflix on each console, provided that Netflix allows more than one user to be logged into the same Netflix account from different "locations". Otherwise, you might need two Netflix memberships too. If my siblings
and I didn't want to share our Super Nintendo, my parents said "Tough dookie! Learn to share "your toys"". My, how times have changed. LOL

 

You need to make the account your home xbox then you can make another account and it should have the games and xboxlive to see how to make your account the home xbox go to My Home Xbox Setting on Xbox One | Share Your Xbox One

 

This would be a use for the My Home Xbox feature.

Although it's meant to be on one console with multiple users, it can technically be used in this situation in one house with 2 xboxes.

Here's how it works (this can get confusing because of the way you want to use this feature): There's account A and console A with the gold and games and account B and console B without gold and without the games.

1. You log in on the account A with the gold and games you want to share on console B.

2. Set that console as the "my home xbox" account (see link above).

3. Log in on the account A on console A with that account that owns the gold and games and also log in on console B with account B and that account now has access to gold without having to pay for it again - being shared from account A's my home xbox.

4. Some games may not be able to be played two times at a time with this feature, and you may need to purchase the game again on account B but the gold will share for sure with no problems.

 

thanks so much, I guess Santa can bring them one now
