    How to transfer games to my children?


    Hi there,

    I have in my home 2 xbox one: a xbox one X for me and a xbox one S for my children.

    Before having the second xbox for my children, there was only 1 xbox, and I have bought some games for my children, on my account.

    Now, they have their own xbox one s, and they installed the games. But, each time they want to launch a game, they must use my account to be able to launch it.

    I would like to know how I can "transfer" the license to one of my children, for them to not have to use my account (because I can't play on mine when they use my account).

    Thanks for your help and answers.

    :)

    Thanks a lot for all your answers! :)

    I'll try this.

    But what about my Xbox live Gold membership? I think they will be able to use it, but if I'm connected to mine, can I use it first? I mean, if we are both connected on our consoles, my account will be logged in on my xbox, so I will have my xbox live gold,
    right?

    Again, thanks so much for your answers. You made my day. :)

    Game licenses are owned by the purchasing account and cannot be transferred to another.

    As others have mentioned, setting up a home xbox would be the best route to go. Here is the

    Hope this helps!

    Hey Cheviader,

    The best thing here would be to set your children's Xbox as your home Xbox. To do this simply go to Syste>Settings>Preferences and then select My Home Xbox. You'll be able to make your children's Xbox the home Xbox. That way they can download the games you
    bought within the parameters of the parental controls you have set-up.

    As you still are signed into your account on your Xbox, you can still buy games and download any games purchased with that account on your Xbox as long as you are signed in.

    Hope that helps!

    To my knowledge there is no option to transfer games between accounts on the XBox, however you can game share your library to them 😀
