    How can I install a game I own on a different console with the same account?


    I own two x boxes at two different houses without the game pass for both of them. Both x boxes are linked and use the same account and the same email. I have installed a game on my first x box and have been playing it for a few days. I went to another house and turned on my second x box to install the game. I looked in the store for the game and found that it displayed the game as not owned and stated I must buy it to play it. What should I do?

    :)

    How can I install a game I own on a different console with the same account?

    That's why, with your concern, you need to be signed in on the same account where the game was purchased to install the game on other devices as well.

    It may mean that it's not the account where the game was purchased, on your other Xbox console, let's call this is as an Xbox A, do you have another account that you own from there? If yes, please check as the game can be purchased in one of the accounts on your Xbox A.

    Hi just thinking, x box A is linked with my brother’s account who has the game pass. I think my brother hasn’t bought the game, but with x box A being linked with his, I was able to get the game. X box B is linked to x box A but not directly linked to my brothers x box so that’s why it didn’t let me get the game. Problem solved I suppose.

    Yes it is connected with another account which is my brothers. We originally linked them so we both had x box live gold. I have checked and asked him and he hasn’t bought the game

    Hi, I hope you're doing great out there. I am an Independent advisor and I am here to help you in regard to your concern.

    We need to make sure that the game was purchased under the account that you’re using. Please sign in to https://account.microsoft.com/billing/orders and validate if you can see the game transaction stated as “completed”.
