Possible to play online co-op games with family on 1 console?

Hi!

Is it possible to play online co-op games with my wife on 1 console? If possible, how?

I know that most likely I need one more console in order to be able to do that, but it seems to me a waste of money buying 1 more console just for the purpose.

Thank you!

And probably most of the games coming in the the future will not support cross platform.

Hi [EX]!

Do you mean using a win10 pc to play cross platform games with xbox? I researched on this but the games that support cross platform is very few...

Some games will let you play local co-op but unfortunately not all of them. Some like diablo, will require a second family member account that you add to your family profile account. And the gameplay in the case of diablo is shared screen. Other game in the case of Borderland or minecraft will be a split screen. If you browse le microsoft game list select filter local coop or local multiplayer you will have a list of game that you will be able to enjoy with your wife. I really enjoy a friendly coop of borderland with my wife every now and then.

I don't think it's cross platform cause you're streaming the game from your Xbox.

Just give it a try !

PS: But I've never played online multiplayer this way - don't know if that works...

Hi,

if you have a Win10 PC good enough for the games you can also play coop with the Xbox App!

I use my PC to get some coop achievements this way ! 😉
