Problem with xcloud and local play.

WilliamDantas1 · Jul 4, 2022

Hi xbox team, I was trying to play a game on the Xcloud using my phone but wasn't working because my girlfriend was playing a different game on my xbox with a game that was install on xbox.

We have other work around?

Thanks,

:)

Hello, WilliamDantas1. Thanks for reaching out! My name is Lucas, and I'm an Independent Advisor and a Microsoft user just like you. I'll be happy to assist you today.

Unfortunately, you cannot play games with the same account on two devices at the same time. Your girlfriend will need to use her account to play. If she doesn't have an account, she will need to create one.

I'm sorry about this, there is no workaround. Feel free to ask back any question.

It is it depends on the game and it has to be the same device

Unless you are playing via console then it has to be home console or locally installed

Not xcloud

Accounts can only be signed into one place ag a time and xcloud is a subscriber only feature as home console is only a console feature

Any Idea if local coop (2nd controller) will be available on xcloud and when ?

ngocphi

No as it's a cloud only feature xcloud runs off the cloud servers

Remote play requires a compatible controller

Which runs off your local installed games not ckoud

Greetings,

That is such a great idea, and we love the feedback. The current structure of Xcloud doesn’t allow for local multiplayer but we are always looking for way to improve the system.

I will take your idea and submit it to our feedback area for review. It does look like it has been recommended in the past, so this should help it get some additional traction.
