PC GAME PASS: How to play two instance of 1 game in two PC?

Hi, my name is Fernando and I am an independent consultant for Microsoft products.

Unfortunately you wouldn't be able to share Ultimate Game Pass on a PC.

You'll need the GAME PASS FRIENDS & FAMILY:

Hey there!

Unfortunately, Yakuza 4 is not a part of the Xbox Play Anywhere program. So the game save you have on your Xbox would be a separate save instance from the PC version of the game. In a sense, they'll be treated like two separate games, so you'd need a new save file if you were hoping to play on two different devices (console vs. PC)

Hello Lucas Leite2,

Thank you for the update and for the clarity. I understand that you would like to know how to open two instances of the same game using Game Pass. Let's continue and check to see what we can do best regarding this issue we have.

• Just want to clarify, you are using steam application to launch the game which was working and when you tried doing it on your computer by having an Xbox Game Pass for PC on your account that's when the issue presented, correct?
  
• Also, just want to confirm if you are using the Xbox app for launching this game from your PC device?
  
• Is the issue presented only to this game?
  
• Was this working before?
  

In cases like this, there is a possibility that opening two instances of the same game using Game Pass is not officially supported by Microsoft. However, there are some workarounds that you can try. One possible solution is to create a new user account on your computer and install a separate copy of Stardew Valley on that account. This will allow you to run two instances of the game simultaneously. Here are the steps to create a new user account:



1. Click on the Start menu and select Settings.

2. Click on Accounts.

3. Click on Family & other users.

4. Click on Add someone else to this PC.

5. Follow the prompts to create a new user account.



Once you have created a new user account, you can install a separate copy of Stardew Valley on that account. Here are the steps to install the game:



1. Log in to the new user account.

2. Open the Microsoft Store app.

3. Search for Stardew Valley and select it from the search results.

4. Click on Install to install the game.



You can now run two instances of Stardew Valley by logging in to both user accounts and launching the game from each account.



I hope this solution helps. Please let me know if you have any further questions or concerns.

Kind regards,
