    Need help with game sharing and owning 2 Xbox Ones


    In my house I own 2 Xbox Ones (white and black) which I use frequently. My older brother decided to purchase Madden NFL 17 on my white Xbox under my XBL profile instead of his. Now we're running into the issue of not being able to play at the same time for
    my profile can't be signed in to more than one Xbox 1. Any assistance on how to fix this problem would be great for its the only game he plays when he is home. Perhaps game sharing would be a possibility? Would adding him to my family allow him to play my
    purchased games?

    :)

    You can only have one console set as your Home console at a time. So once he set another console as his Home, you lose access to his content. You should still have access to any games you purchased on your account as long as you're signed into Live, but
    if you're still having issues you may have to try setting your console as your Home console (which is recommended).

    The only option other than having him purchase a second copy on his account would be to have him play on your home Xbox. He can sign into his account on your home Xbox and be able to play the game with you while you are signed into the second Xbox.

    Playing with one Gamertag on two consoles at the same time.

    Hi Cryptah! My name is Ricardo an independent advisor ready to help you with this situation!

    Xbox 360 can't use games at the same time on 2 consoles with the same gamertag unless one of the consoles is offline, same thing can be done with the Xbox one/series you can also create his own gamertag, but sharing features only works on 2 consoles at the same time, you will need a second suscription

    I’m trying to game share with my brother save the world from my main account to a different account and it’s not working may I get some help

    Are you both using the same console? From what I understand, game sharing needs 2 consoles as each needs to be set as the home console to game share....my guess would be, with only one console, you'd need something like Ultimate Game Pass to be able for other accounts to access the games you own.

    At least, that's my understanding but I'm not an expert at consoles or game sharing etc
