    Multiple Xboxes


    I have two Xboxes. I have six kids each with their own account and I hold the primary account with the Xbox Gold and where most of the games have been purchased. Based on all of the posts I have read I realize that only one Xbox can be set as my home Xbox
    and I must be logged into the second box for any of my children to be able to play the games on the second Xbox.

    If I were to want to allow my kids to play all of the games we have purchased on the second Xbox with me having to login then I assume I have to purchase the games a second time from one of my children's accounts and then make the second xbox that child's
    home xbox and then everyone should be able to play all of the games on both xboxes, is this assumption correct?

    Also, because my account has the Gold subscription, we have downloaded many games with the Games with gold feature. If I were to get one of my children a Gold account and make the second Xbox their home Xbox would they have access to all of the previous
    games with Gold that we have already downloaded with my account or would I still have to login to the second xBox to access the games with Gold that we previously downloaded?

    :)

    Multiple xboxes, multiple users.

    Hey there -

    The Xbox One has the
    Home Console     system which is designed for families with multiple users/consoles to share games across consoles without needing to purchase the same game multiple times. Making sure that is set up correctly should alleviate many of the issues you're outlining
    regarding sharing games.

    Regarding Destiny and needing to be logged in - Do you own multiple copies of the game digitally or on disc? If it's a digital copy, double check that your purchase for the game went through using the account in question's
    Microsoft Commerce account or the account's

    My Games     section.

    Let us know if that helps or if you have other questions we can help with. :)

    Thank you - I just knew I'd done it wrong from the start!

    So with four of us there would need to be 2 "home" xboxes and 2 sets of the game we desire to play.

    No matter what console the profile that bought the games is signed into it will always be able to play its games and use its subscriptions.

    Each profile can set one console at a time as its home console and any other profile on that console can then play its digital games and use its subscriptions.

    With this in mind in your situation only 2 consoles at a time would be able to play the games.

    Let me see if I can explain it to you.

    P1= Profile with purchased games and subscriptions

    P2= Kid profile 1

    P3= Kid profile 2

    C1= P1s Home console

    C2= Console 1 that is not P1s Home console

    C3= Console 2 that is not P1s Home console

    C1 all 3 profiles can play any of P1s games and use P1s subscriptions without P1 being signed in

    If C2 or C3 want to play any of P1s games on either P2 or P3 then they would need first sign into P1 on either of those consoles then switch to their profile and then they can play any of those games or use P1s subscriptions Keep in mind going this route
    P1 would not be able to sign into any other Xbox One console to play because it will then sign out of that console and kick the person playing out of the game or online. So only the home console and one other console would be able to play P1s games and use
    any subscription at the same time

    i believe so.
    You can not share across three consoles. You can not post information like this, it is neither accurate or helpful.
