How to Game Share, Halo: MCC on PC?

VarindraLakhan · Mar 5, 2023

This issue relates to PC.

My brother is sharing Halo: MCC (GamePass Ultimate), with me. Both accounts are used on the same PC.
Upon launching the game, and attempting to load a Multiplayer Match or Campaign Mission. I can't play as Halo: MCC thinks I don't have the games installed, (even though they are installed), so it asks me to visit the Microsoft Store to install them.

If I launch the game with my brother's account, which is subscribed to GamePass Ultimate, it says the games are installed. It works as normal.

But, I want to play with my account.

NOTE: This was never an issue in the past, I was able to play games no problem.

Any Help?

Hi VarindraLakhan!

Let's try the steps below:

Launch the Xbox app and sign in with the Microsoft account you use for Xbox.
Select your gamerpic, then select Settings.
Under Account, select Change my Microsoft Store account.
Follow the on-screen instructions and sign in to the Store with the Microsoft account for the games or subscription you’ll be using which is your brother's account.

MCC was down as there was an update giving PC owners Halo Combat Evolved Anniversary game playable now. Stay tuned for more such issues to indicate when the other halo games will release for PC MCC

it is because its part of the halo MCC, you need the base part which is halo MCC then the individual games so it reserves space for them, halo 1 on pc for instance is 8.58GB and then add on the MCC base game it becomes 30.08GB.

halo mcc consists of all the games which take 142GB of space on pc so it saves this space aside, when you install hmcc and just one of the games which is also split into multiplayer and campaign it looks like it still reserves the space, this is what i have seen on xbox and gamepass pc, when i install via steam and just choose one of the games to be installed then the space taken is just by mcc and that one game.

I don't know if you are playing MCC: Halo 2 on PC or console. here's a link to change your video settings on PC.

Halo 5: Forge is available, which has some features, and allows you to create maps and play limited multiplayer, but for now that is the extent of its availability on PC. That said, it wouldn't be completely wild to think that they would, at one point,
put it out on PC either standalone, as an add-on for MCC, or package it into MCC at a later date. For now I'm pretty sure their focus is on Halo: Reach on PC (+ Steam) via the MCC and Halo: Infinite, so I wouldn't hold my breath. Would be nice to round out
that series and further increase the value of MCC or Xbox Game Pass for PC.
