Multiple Consoles and Games

GWN1122 · May 7, 2020

Alright, I have 3 xbox's in my house. Mine, my sons, and now my daughters. I pay for ultimate on all 3. Is there a way to share games bought on console, or do i have to buy one for each console? For example, my son has Call of Duty MW bought on his.
Can the other 2 consoles play the game he bought or do i have to buy it for each one? We are in the same house, on the same network.

Hi,

You can only buy the game once if you log into the console with the account that makes the purchase.

You can also use the "Home xbox" functionality which allows you to play purchased content even if the account which made the purchase is not connected.

The only limitation is that an account can only have one Home xbox and the number of changes is limited in time.

xbox pricipale also allows you to share subscriptions: xbox live, xbox game pass.

For exemple :

You buy with your account, Modern Warefare.

You configure your son's console in home xbox with your profil.

You can play with your account on your xbox (logged with your profil) and your son can play MW on his own account without the need for you to be logged on his console.

Best regards,

People are getting banned for having different gamertags for different regions, which means they have been downloading free games that are not available in their region. But you have nothing to worry about unless you let your friend download games that you
have downloaded and he has not paid for, as this is classed as marketplace theft

I do the same thing. I have had multiple consoles in the past. One for my family (which gets the first downloads) and then one for me. That way there is no arguing.

Ok, so I'm having this exact same problem, and I just double checked the home Xbox settings, even disabled and enabled it again. The paid account is current and I was fine until the recent update. Now my digital copy of Destiny w/ all extras will only work
for one Xbox at a time. I keep receiving this "0x87e107d0" error code and it turns up absolutely nothing in the Xbox support code search. I have zero to no patience when it comes to things not doing what they're supposed to do so I'm trying to not lose my
mind and get an answer. If you guys can help us fix this issue you'll be my hero!

Yes you can download it again on any other console you want, but you will only be able to play it while your account is signed into Live.

It will not damage the download on your console.
