    Pretty much what the question asks. I know I can only have two gamertags share a Live account, but is there a way all 3 of us can enjoy the games I have bought without having to repurchase games? We all are part of my family account.

    :)

    Three Xbox Consoles, 3 different gamertags (me and my 2 kids), can everyone play the games I have purchased on their consoles?

    Adding a second Xbox One

    So you can play 1 game on all 3 xbox's? Do you have everyone set up under the family plan for the main gamertag? I had 2 xbox's made the kids Xbox my home and they had no problem playing the games. But now I have three and I can't seem to get the same
    game to play on the old one that use to ve mine without me signing in. How did you fix it? Help

    Parent downloaded gift points to wrong child's account and

    Stuff can't be transferred. The game is tied to kid #2's account AND that xbox.

    When you download content, it's licensed to the gamertag and console downloaded to. You can download again on another console, but then only have access with the original gamertag while connected to live.

    On the original console, all accounts have access to it.

    .

    To fix this issue, you must put kid #2's account on kid #1's xbox, activate a license transfer and redownload the game onto that console.

    This should make the game register to that console, and allow kid #1 to play even though it was downloaded with kid #2 account, and it will make it so it wont be playable to any account on kid #2 xbox, but kid #2 can play it on that console while connected
    to live.

    .

    I hope that makes sense, I tend to ramble.

    Sharing Xbox live across 2 xboxes

    Hi Ali,

    Thanks for reaching out to the forums. We understand you have questions on home console. With

    home console
    the Xbox console you set as home any profile can play and use the Xbox live. This should be the profile that has the Xbox live subscription. The other console only the profile that is set as home on the other console will be able to play. The
    other accounts will need Xbox live unless you can sign in the home console profile. So here is an example. will reference kids as 1, 2, and 3.

    A. Kid 1 as the Xbox live subscription. His profile will be set as home on the console all kids use the most which is console B. He will also add his profile to console A. He can play on console A or B with no issues.

    B Kid 2 and 3 they will be able to play on Console B with no issues. If they try and play on Console A, kid 1 will need to be logged in.

    So if Kid 2 and 3 want to game together they can play on separate consoles. The one on Console A will only need to sign in Kid 1.

    Hope this helps. Let me know if any questions.

    Brad

    Xbox live subscription family

    Unfortunately, there is no family subscription anymore.

    This was probably replaced by the family sharing through the "Home Console" setting on the Xbox One.

    This setting allows one single console to share Gold and Game Pass memberships as well as purchased games to everyone playing on that single console.

    However, since you have three separate consoles, you need at least two separate subscriptions.

    For example, you have Kid1, Kid2 and Kid3, playing on Console1, Console2 and Console3:

    Buy a subscription for Kid 1 and Kid 3.

    Have Kid1 set Console2 as it's Home Console. Now Kid 2 can play all games Kid1 owns, as well as participate in online multiplayer thanks to the subscription of Kid1.

    Since Kid1 owns the subscription on their account (as does Kid3), both kids can play on any console in the world and benefit from their Gold membership.

    Kid2 can only play on that console, that Kid1 or Kid3 set as their Home Console as only those Home Consoles will share the Gold membership of their respective owners.
