Playing two different xbox consoles at the same time with one gold subscription

The Xbox One can share a gold subscription, but only on the same console. If they're playing on two different consoles with two different accounts, you would need a separate gold subscription.

Unfortunately you can not share the same Xbox account on two consoles at the same time. For both of you to play on two different consoles at the same time would require two different accounts. It doesn't cost anything to create an account for Xbox Live.
However, it will cost BOTH accounts to have Gold subscriptions.

Hello, Regarding your question it is a yes. You can play the same game at the same time using two different consoles; However, in order to do that you will need to be using two different profiles for each console.

The first thing you need to do, is to set up the account that owns the subscription/game as a home Xbox on one console. That way you will be sharing the subscription on that Xbox and any account you sign in with on that console will be able to benefit from the subscription and the games that are on it.

Then you will need to go on the other console and sign in with account that owns the subscription/game but do not make a home console. This way you can play the game at the same on two accounts with two different consoles.

Hi Mark

Family settings are for managing members in it which is usually child/teen account.

But to answer your question, if you only intend to share the gold subscription on the Xbox one, simply sign in on that console using the account that has the subscription and switch over to their preferred profile.

There are two ways on how to share gold:

-Setting the console as home

-Simply signing in on that console - as long as you're signed in (but the downside for this set up, you wouldn't be able to play at the same time.)

If you plan on playing together at the same time, (even if its a different game) you would need to set the Xbox one as home.

Hi there,

if your nephew is using the same account on both 360 and Xbox One, then the account should have Gold on both consoles,

Gold is something that is connected to the Account and not the console, so on whatever console he uses the account it should have the Gold subscription.

if he created a new account on the Xbox One, then there are two different accounts on the consoles and then only one of those got the Gold subscription

So depending on the situation he can or can not play together with you, also be aware that it will also depend on the game what options of playing together are present.
