Kids can't play a game I purchased

Discus and support Kids can't play a game I purchased in XBoX on Consoles to solve the problem; I created a new account and moved my kids xbox live accounts under it as a family. I purchased a game online (Terreria), but none of them can play it... Discussion in 'XBoX on Consoles' started by MatthewBeall, Jan 1, 2015.

    Kids can't play a game I purchased


    I created a new account and moved my kids xbox live accounts under it as a family.

    I purchased a game online (Terreria), but none of them can play it unless I am logged in. It asks "Do you own this game" or something, then sends them to the marketplace for that game and says it costs $$$..

    Do I have to stay logged in for them to play games I've purchased? That I recall, we didn't have this problem with the xbox360.

    I noticed if one of the kids downloads a games (bought, or a games with gold), everyone can play it..

    :)

  2. Download But Can't Get Pass Loading Screen?

    That's me the parent that purchased it for Christmas and kid can't even play a game. It's a mess IMO, and I know PS4's are not seeing the issue this thing is having. Extremely frustrating!!

    Deleting Games from XBox1 permanently

    You can't delete a game from your account once You have purchased It, but you can Control what your kids can see or not.

    Kids can't play a game I purchased

    Sorry to hear it. This issue suggests that the gamertag that purchased the game has not set the console as it's Home console. Log in with that gamertag and head over to Settings. The option at the bottom of the list on the left side of the screen is the
    one you want.

    Why are their so many underage players on some games?

    18+ generally just means kids can't buy them without parents' permission As long as the parent approves the purchase, the kids can play the games.

    Battlefield 3 "too young"

    Kids can't play this game because then we'd have kids in the game whom are like this:

    Can I transfer codes redeemed for xbox games to other accounts?

    Sorry, but you can't transfer digital purchases between accounts. If you login to the console with your account and set it as your home xbox, your kids should be able to still play those games.
