Linking xbox live for 2 consoles

DeaBaby · Jan 11, 2022

Is it possible to link the xbox live accounts for my 2 xbox consoles? One is a xbox one S and the other a xbox series s. Do the primary accounts on the xbox have to be the same? One xbox is set up with my husbands microsoft account and the other with mine. Also, if they are able to link, can each be on live at the same time?

Hello, My name is Jesse. I'm an Independent Advisor and a member of the Microsoft community and I'd love to assist you today.

You have 2 accounts and 2 consoles. Let's call them Account A, Console A and account B, console B.

Account A has the subscription and B does not. A should sign into Console B and make it his Home Xbox and then sign out of that console and let account B sign in.

Doing that, account B will have access to the subscriptions and games on account A's account and they can play together.

The issue with gamesharing often happens when the account with the games/subscription doesn't sign out after making the other console his Home Xbox, but once it's signed out, the other account can sign in and access everything.

To designate an Xbox console as your home Xbox;

• Press the Xbox button to open the guide.

• Select System > Settings > Personalization, and then select My home Xbox.

• Select Make this my home Xbox to designate the console as your home Xbox.

Hello you will only be able to link 2 console together at one time. The 3rd console will needs its own subscription of xbox live and gamepass.

You would only be able to play it on 2 of the consoles with 2 different profiles at the same time the 3rd console would have to get its own copy of the game and its own gold subscription in order to play online multiplayer.

Here is a link that talks about home sharing
