  1. Sharing Xbox Live and Game Pass


    Hello everyone,

    A friend and I share a lot of games together and it can get expensive for us to both pay xbox live, games pass, and purchasing two copies of each game. So we have come up with a system where I would pay for xbox live and he would pay the game pass on my
    account and I would set my account up on his xbox as "my home xbox" and do the same with his account on my xbox. I use to do this with brother with no problems. I am now doing it with a friend of mine but we are having an issue. He is getting my xbox live
    now and all my digital games/content but he does not have the access to the game pass. Like I said tho I have done this with my brother in the past and there was no issue. I have also done this with another friend of mine in the past with no issue but there
    is an issue now. We have tried removing both accounts from his xbox and re-downloading them and that didn't really change anything. I know the switch worked on his xbox because he is getting xbox live now and all of my digital games/content except the game
    pass stuff. What can be done to get the game pass working on his xbox? I have read several forums online that says it has worked for them and then others say it hasn't worked for them. Anything help is greatly appreciated.

    :)

    Multi player is not working with game share.. I can download the games of game pass but just no live multi player... making me crazy I don't understand the ussue

    Hello InkBoxTatto,my name is Marvina, I will be happy to help you.

    I'm so sorry for what you're going through yes, multiplayer may not work with shared play.

    Game sharing is a feature that allows members of a family to share their games and subscriptions with other family members. However, live multiplayer is not included in the shared game.

    To play live multiplayer, the family member signing into the game must have an active Xbox Live Gold or Xbox Game Pass Ultimate subscription.

    In this case, the person sharing games with you may not have an active Xbox Live Gold or Xbox Game Pass Ultimate subscription. If so, you will not be able to play live multiplayer.

    To check if the person you're sharing games with has an active Xbox Live Gold or Xbox Game Pass Ultimate subscription, you can ask them to go to Settings > Account > Subscriptions.

    If the person you're sharing games with has an active Xbox Live Gold or Xbox Game Pass Ultimate subscription, but you still can't play live multiplayer, there may be another issue.

    These are basic solutions to these problems, but they can lead to a solution, remember that this is a public forum where we are players like you who want to help, good luck and happy day.

    Sincerely,
    Marvina.

    Game pass sharing

    Standard Xbox home sharing policies apply to Xbox Game Pass, just as they do to Xbox Live Gold. If you have an Xbox Game Pass subscription and have designated your home Xbox, you’ll automatically share your subscription with any profile signed in
    on that console.

    Xbox live gold

    This is a tough one. Game sharing only works with two Xboxes. The only solution is to add Xbox Live Gold/Game Pass to another account that would be using the third Xbox most. But that won't have any shared games. I have this setup at my place and I still
    haven't figured how to get it to work well yet.

    I am hoping Microsoft comes out with a Family Game Pass Ultimate that allows up to 4 Xboxes and 4 Accounts to share Xbox Live, games and Game Pass.

    Maybe when the new Xbox Series X releases it will happen.

    Using Xbox Game Pass Ultimate subscription on a child PC. Why is it impossible?

    Games are only shared on consoles via the Xbox "Home" feature. There is no such feature on PC. Other than sharing access to your games and Xbox Live on consoles, the other features of Game Pass Ultimate are only for the subscriber.
