    Is there a way to game share to multiple Xbox’s through family accounts?


    Hey so I currently have 3 Xbox’s one for myself and my two sons. Is there a way that I can share my games I’ve already bought to both of their Xbox’s? For example, if we all wanted to play Minecraft together instead of buying it three times every time can’t I just buy it once and share it to both of them?

    :)

    Is there a way to game share to multiple Xbox’s through family accounts?

    Hello, Riley_371. I'm Arturo, and I'll be glad to provide assistance with your inquiry today.

    I'm sorry to say, but you can only game share with another Xbox console. This means that only up to 2 people can play the game at the same time.

    The first person will be the one that owns the game, and the other one could be any profile added to the Xbox where you enable “Home Xbox”.

    For example, if your account is the one that owns Minecraft, you can enable Home Xbox on one of your children's Xbox and in that way, you and one of the children can play together at the same time.

    More information about what you can share and how Home Xbox works can be found here:
    https://support.xbox.com/help/hardware-network/console/my-home-xbox

    I know this is not the kind of answer you were expecting, but I hope it helps in some way.

    Kind regards,

    Arturo.

    Xbox game sharing

    Also keep in mind that the game sharing feature is for families or people with multiple Xbox's. Sharing account info with others is against the Xbox Code of Conduct and is also very risky since people lose accounts all the time this way, become victims
    of fraud or get bans unknowingly.

    Bring Back DRM?

    I'm still stunned that people think the family sharing was going to be this great way to save money.

    .

    Publishers hate the used market because they don't like one copy of a game passing through multiple hands, so why on Earth would they support a feature that let one copy pass through multiple hands.

    .

    Think about it.

    Daughter going to college, got her own Xbox One, can i transfer games to her/can she play them?

    The Home console setting would really be the only way, which is really pretty simple. Nothing can be transferred between accounts.

    There used to be a family gold plan, but that was only a different way of purchased gold for multiple accounts. It had no effect on sharing games or game licenses.
