MW2 on Xbox one and One S... Same account, but cant play on my S.

Dave Latham1 · Dec 28, 2022

I have an Xbox One in my living room, and an Xbox one S In a spare room. I have downloaded the disc on my Xbox one, but I can't play it on my One S, even though they are both with the same account. I can play Warzone on both.... But MW2 one One S just tells me to purchase the game....Do I need to buy another Code to play the game, so buy the game twice?

One S is digital only.... Using disc on my 'main' xbox, like playing games on 'spare' occasionally.

That would be why. When you buy a disc game, the disc is primarily used to prove ownership and so the disc has to be in the drive all the time you play the game. As the One S is digital only, you can't put the disc in thus the system does not recognise you own the game hence the purchase prompts.

Unfortunately, in order to play it on your One S, you will need to purchase the digital version of it

Are you using the disc in the One S as well? You need the disc to prove you own the game.

I would also like to ask a second question, which might nulify my first question.

Is the situation I present below possible?

We own the ultimate edition of FH4 on my account.

We have 3 xboxes (2x series s and 1x one s)

Home console Series S: Wife logs in and plays Forza Horizon 4

2nd Series S: I log in and play FH4

Xbox one S: I log in to give acces to my daughther, and she logs in on her account at the same time to play FH4 on her account.

ALL AT THE SAME TIME.

Just wondering if that is possible and/or allowed.
