    Purchased a Year Long Game Live and Game Pass and can't use with family


    I purchased a 12 month Live Game and Gold Pass and activated undery account intendihifor it to be used for my family members listed under my account including my children.

    I am able to use them however no one else on my account including my kids can use XBox Live Game Pass or the Gold Pass I activated.

    Does this mean each kid have to have a sepatese Live Game Pass purchased?

    :)

    Follow the advice from colleagues. And happy gaming for the whole family. In future, my advice is to buy a game pass ultimate which is a combination of both. Since you are using it both it will give you a cheaper option and game pass for PC, same as for
    Xbox, but with little fewer games for now.

    If you're referring to accounts that are listed on the
    Microsoft Account website
    as your family, I'm afraid those accounts will not receive access to any entitlements your account may have. The Family feature only allows use of parental controls; it does not share account privileges. As the other Ambassadors
    have correctly noted, users who sign into your account's Home Xbox will be able to use your Gold features as well as play games that you've installed using Xbox Game Pass.

    Hi,

    Yes you can set up accounts for your children and link them to yours as a family and use the parental controls to monitor their interactions online etc.

    You can purchase Fortnite separately either as a disc from the likes of Amazon ir as a digital copy from tge xbox store. However, Microsoft has a subscription service...

    At the basic level, there's Xbox live, which allows online play etc and provides 4 free selected games per month to download and keep.

    Next there is Game Pass, which alliws access to a large library of games for free for as long as you subscribe or as long as a particular game is in the library.

    The final tier is Game Pass Ultimate, which has the benefits if standard GP and xbox live as well as allowing game pass on PC (but with a smaller library of games).

    There are quite often offers for upgrading from live to ultimate for the cost of £1/€1/$1. This is a brilliant offer to take advantage of if you purchase up to 3 years of the less expensive xbox live then take up the uograde offer, as it converts the full
    3 years to ultimate!
