    Share my Xbox Game Pass account with my kids


    Hi

    I took a subscription for Xbox Game Pass on my PC (Windows 10, we don't have Xbox), my son uses the same laptop but he has his own profile.

    When he connects with Windows how can he uses my subscription for Xbox games without using my own identification?

    I wish he can connect on PC with his own data and then play games with my subscription on his own (without connecting with my ID).

    Thanks for your help.

    Arnaud

    :)

    Xbox Game Pass Ultimate Famly Sharing

    Hi There,

    The Xbox App for PC on Windows 10 should automatically have the Ultimate subscription flow in when my kids sign in but that is not the case. My kids are able to receive the membership on the console through my account and they can play the games through
    the pass which works fine no complaints. I need to know when will this Game pass subscription sharing will work with Xbox app for PC.

    Thanks,

    Akash

    Help with multiple consoles and users

    It's a shame I need to buy each account a gold and a games pass my kids won't share games accounts now too competitive. Xbox have parents spending once again.

    Game Pass PC/children xbox accounts

    Hello,

    I don't think my original post is so unclear of what I am asking right?

    I know how PCs work. My kids will never play or log in to my PC. It's not about that.

    Again the question in short.... (please read my original question carefully)

    When I buy Xbox Game Pass Ultimate and use it on PC can I play whith my kids on their Xbox? Please note that I will have set my Xbox Game Pass account to "home console" Kid 1 and 2 have their own accounts next to mine.

    I want to buy only on one account the Xbox game pass ultimate, my acount that I will use on PC. This account will also the home account on the xbox series x even though I will not play on that. I its pure to share the pass with account kid 1 and 2.

    Again I don't want to be rude but read my original post for more details. The first answer made more confusion and the second not even related to what I was asking in the first place

    Thx

    Because it doesnt

    Home sharing is only a feature on the xbox one

    Not the pc

    Can I use my Xbox Game Pass Ultimate subscription on multiple Windows 10 PCs?

    Yes, just like Xbox Live Gold or Xbox Game Pass, you can use this subscription wherever you sign in. Your subscription is tied to you, not to a specific device.

    https://support.xbox.com/en-CA/billing/xbox-subscriptions/xbox-game-pass-ultimate-faq

    Keep in mind that it only applirs.to the membership itself

    Your kids cannot download any game on their own profile but they can use the xbox app.to play the games

    On the PC it's a bit awkward.

    First of all, you'll have to make sure yourkids s added to your Microsoft family. Sign in with your account on https://account.microsoft.com/family. There add your kids is
    Microsoft Account if not already done so.

    Now the complicated part on getting the Game Pass Games on your kid's PC:

    Your kids has to add your Microsoft Account as a second user to their PC.

    Then with your kids SIGNED IN, have themr go to the Windows Store or Xbox Game Pass App.

    If they signed in to these apps, to sign out temporarily from these apps, and you will have to sign in with your account.

    You ONLY sign into the APPS! You do NOT sign out your kids from their logged in account on the PC!

    Then with your account signed in on the store app or the Xbox Game Pass app, your kids can then download and install the PC games.

    Just upgraded to series X but can't make it home xbox

    Because my 2 kids now share ultimate game pass or whatever is called this really isn't much use.

    When the older son had his xbox one the 2 boys could share the gold pass and ultimate pass etc but now he has upgraded to x series these features are no longer shared between the 2 kids.

    All I want is what they had when they both had xbox ones is to hVe the same now one has upgraded to x series.
