Will you bring in a new group discount scheme for families now friends and family is cancelled?

Hi

I have 2 kids and currently we just share an account. This obviously means not playing at the same time online.

We were all looking forward to the friends and family gamepass coming out so we could all play together online but now I have read that is being cancelled.

Will there be another way of discounting for families accounts coming in the future? I am unwilling to pay for 3 full subscriptions which is why the friends and family was of interest as it landed perfectly in budget. I love Xbox but something needs to be done to make this better for families (without squinting at a screen quartered up)

No one here has any advanced knowledge of anything Microsoft does. We find out at exactly the same time you do

If you read the article on Eurogamer here https://www.eurogamer.net/xbox-game...ly-preview-ends-next-month-microsoft-confirms it states

Try this part; using your own account, go to account.microsoft.com/family and create a new family group. Invite the child account into that family group as a member.

Then you can control all the settings you need.

Hi, this can be a bit odd but can you try leaving the family group and try once you're alone?
(If you're the only family organizer in the group please add first another account as family organizer (or you can create a new one for this purpose)

If everything looks good outside the family group. Go back to the group and try again once you're in (don't forget to add yourself as family organizer)

If the will be sold at Sears then it's a win for me! I work there and that would mean 10% discount and on family and friends night a 20% discount... Sweet!!!
