    Sharing xbox live in the household


    I have a wee query. I have two sons which have shared Xbox live for the last 7 years. I set this up on a family account, so my youngest got live from my oldest sons account. My oldest son got a new series x and created a new account as he couldn’t access fifa due to email unrecognised. He now plays fifa on his new account and still plays some games on his old account. So switching between two accounts on his console. Does this now mean I need to buy two subscriptions so my oldest and youngest can have live. Hope this makes sense.

    :)

    Can I transfer a game license to a friend?

    • No, Xbox does not allow you to game share with people outside your household. Game sharing is a feature that allows family members or friends living in the same household to share games and Xbox Live Gold memberships on one console. Sharing your games or memberships with people outside your household violates the terms of use and could result in account suspension or other penalties.

    I have a similar problem; I just brought a xbox s to replace the Xbox one, but now my son can play the games only if I'm log in. The question I have to remove them from the Xbox one; so they can use the games on the new Xbox s?

    Hi Lorraine1975, I hope you're doing great out there despite the issue that you're experiencing. I am an Independent advisor and I am here to help you in regards to your concern.

    Yes, you may need to buy an Xbox Live for your youngest son since the Xbox Live is now being shared on the new Xbox Series X which your oldest son is using.

    Game sharing

    You can't game share if you don't live in the same household.

    Game share broke friends xbox

    It should also be noted that using game share in this way isn't allowed.

    The game share feature is intended for family members within the same household, and sharing login details is against the terms and conditions of Xbox live.
