    yes, there's nothing wrong with sharing disc games.Obviously, you won't be able to play it without the disc and at the same time.

    Playing games on a different xbox

    Hello Program Galactic,

    Thank you for posting on the Xbox forums. We understand that you are interested in knowing if you can use a game disc to play on two different consoles. It is possible to share digital games by using the

    Home Xbox feature
    . This will allow two different accounts on two different consoles to play the same game at the same time. This feature is not supported for disc games. It is fine if you would like to share the disc with your family member. The game will
    be able to be installed and used on two different consoles at separate times. We hope this helps!

    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
