    Hey guys, im planning to switch to the new Xbox series S once it releases. I was wondering as for the games I have on disc, will i have to repurchase the games since the xbox series s is all digital? And if so will i be able to keep all of my progress?

    :)

    Switching to a new Xbox

    Hey daniel

    Thank you for taking the time to post this on the Xbox Forums. We understand that you are inquiring about using physical copies and save data on the next-gen console.

    The
    Xbox Series S
    is an all-digital gaming console for disc-free gaming. Disc-based games are not compatible with Xbox Series S. Due to this, you will indeed have to re-purchase any physical games you would like to continue playing in digital format.

    In addition to this, all save data is automatically stored on the
    Cloud storage
    , so you simply need to sign into the account that you last played on, on your new console to pick up where you left off.

    I hope this was able to clarify any confusion this might have caused.

    Microsoft charged me even though I had auto-renewal turned off.

    quick question , have you bought a new xbox recently, as i and many others swear that they had it switched off, i bought a new xbox recently and suspect that auto renewal auto switches back on,?? looking for a trend

    xbox home/switch

    are switches assigned to your account or xbox? when i log in on the new system, won't that count as a switch since it will be trying to set it as my home xbox? then, i remove the old one from my account. Now, when I try to go on the xbox I am sharing
    with, do I need to set that as the home xbox to my new console? Will any of this count as a switch?
