    play games on 2 different xboxes

    Hello, first it's a pleasure to be able to help you today.

    My name is welcome to the community.

    Hello Michael, try to check if Home Console is configured correctly.

    You have 2 accounts and 2 consoles. Let's call them Account A, Console A and account B, console B.

    Account A has the subscription and B does not. A should sign into Console B and make it his Home Xbox and then sign out of that console and let account B sign in.

    Doing that, account B will have access to the subscriptions and games on account A's account and they can play together.

    The issue with gamesharing often happens when the account with the games/subscription doesn't sign out after making the other console his Home Xbox, but once it's signed out, the other account can sign in and access everything.

    To designate an Xbox console as your home Xbox;

    • Press the Xbox button to open the guide.

    • Select System > Settings > Personalization, and then select My home Xbox.

    • Select Make this my home Xbox to designate the console as your home Xbox.

    Designate a home Xbox

    Trying to play on 2 Xbox's at the same time (2 different accounts, 2 different games)

    Hi there,

    what could be causing this, is that your account is also signed in on that other console, if so please sign out on that console to see if that helps.

    Let it know if there are any results

    Playing on 2 different xbox consoles

    Hello Larry,

    Thank you for posting in Microsoft Community.

    I understand that you are having trouble playing Hogwarts on two different Xbox consoles at the same time. This is because the game has a feature called Smart Delivery, which allows you to play the best version of the game for your console, but not both versions simultaneously. You can only play the game on one console at a time, regardless of which edition you purchased. To switch between consoles, you need to sign out of one console and sign in to the other. Please do note that the game is also a single player based on the game details on this link: Buy Hogwarts Legacy: Digital Deluxe Edition | Xbox.

    According to the official FAQ, the game does not support cross play or cross-progression, which means you can only play it on one console and not transfer your progress to another one. This is because the game is a single-player experience with no multiplayer components.

    For more details about the game, you may also check this link: https://www.hogwartslegacy.com/en-us/faq

    I apologize for any inconvenience this may cause you. I hope this information helps. If you have any other questions or issues, please let me know.

    Have a great day!



    Sincerely,

    Hello Larry,

    Thank you for your response and I appreciate your wide understanding about the game features. As for downloading the game on both of your Xbox One and Xbox Series X console, the Digital Deluxe Edition bundle includes both Xbox One and Xbox Series X|S Digital versions. To download it you may go to your Xbox Consoles My games and apps or go to Microsoft Store App and search for the game.
