If I buy a second disc of the same game, can both my kids play on separate consoles, that...

We have an Xbox One and an Xbox X, both our kids want to play Red Dead at the same time, one on each console. Right now they take turns moving the disc mack and forth. If we buy a second disc, or purchase a digital version, will they both be able to play at the same time on each separate Xbox?

Yes as long as they are both signed into separate accounts

If you are buying the game on disc then you would need to buy two copies however if you buy the games digitally then you only need to buy it once and both your kids can play it even at the same time also both kids can share Xbox live

Hi guys hoping someone could clarify for me if i purchase a second xbox one console for another bedroom will i be able to share my subscriptions with both xbox's at the same time? I currently have game pass ultimate and share this with my kids and i intend
to buy a second console will i be able to sign into both consoles at the same time? will i be able to share the subscriptions on both consoles somehow?

You can make home xbox and then play

the fee confusion comes from "installs". sure there might be a fee if you try to install that same game on another console .. it's no different from right now. you can't play the same game between two people on two separate consoles. they both have to
own the game. so if you attempt to install the same game on two consoles then obviously there would be a fee to do that on a second console. otherwise you're just buying one game and installing to every console you have. that's not how it works now, why
would it change?

the fee comes when that second console tries to "own" that game by installing it. the second console can still simply just play the game from disc.

Hello Alex,

Thanks for bringing the question to the forums. With
home console sharing basically the profile with gold one of the kids would need to play on. You will make it home (as you have it set now) on the first console. On the second console you will download the same profile to the second. While the kids can
play on the first one fine with any profile, on the new one they wont be able to. If your kids have separate accounts besides the one that has the gold, you could buy the gold on one of their accounts then set up home console with that profile. For example
we will call your profile A kids are B and C. Currently live is on A. They will need to play on A on the new Xbox to utilize gold on both consoles. If you purchase live for B (cancel A) then set B on the first console you owned as home and download on new
console also. Profile B and C will be able to play on separate consoles and use the gold. C will have to play on the first console and B on the new console.

Hope this helps.

thanks,

Brad
