Question about Xbox Game Sharing

Hey Colossus1500,



Sorry for the confusion about this. I am guessing you bought the digital version of the game? What you can do is share the game with family members that are added to your account in the first console as long as your signed in that console. You can sign on
the second console and load the game there and play as well.

Unfortunately the limitation is that the game DRM is tied to your account and not your family members that share the console. Just like when you own the disc you cant play it, take it out , insert it into a different console and expect to play on both. Since
you cant sign in on 2 Xbox One consoles at the same time you cant share play the game on one and share it on an other even though he is your family member that is tied to your account.

The summary is in order to play on 2 consoles the same game you will need to have 2 versions of the game owned by each person.



I hope that I explained it well enough but reach back if you are further confused by my ramblings.

You can play any game on your console as long as the owners account is also logged in to the console. What you can't do is play at the same time on two consoles.

What I meant was is ok to play his game on my console if I have his consent to play, while using his account.

If it is the first time you are signing into that xbox with that profile then yes it will make that xbox your home xbox.

If you want to make the other one your home xbox then you would just need to sign back into that one and go into the settings and make it your home xbox again.

Keep in mind you can only switch which console you have set as your home xbox FIVE times a year.

Ok so in my household we have 2 XB 1's. Why if I buy a COD Ghosts can't my brother play with me at the same time on his console? Why would he have to buy another?! I though they were fixing this issue.
