X box game pass sharing for Play anywhere games

Pala5h · May 13, 2019

Hi,

I have an Xbox Game pass membership and I have my brother added in my family accounts. Can he download the play anywhere games included in game pass membership on his Windows 10 PC? This way we would be able to cross play games on our devices. Please advise
if this is possible?

:)

Nice Information, thx for that. That helps me a lot. My son will use my Gamepass Hames with his Gamertag on his Win10 PC.

yes, but you cant play GP games that not avaliable on windows store play anywhere program; but microsoft had some plans to expand this.

You have to download the games first in your account (signed in the pc) and then your brother should be able to play them.

But remember, they can play your games, but they cannot download them.

Family sharing on the Windows 10 PC is possible, but a bit more awkward than on the Xbox console where you just set the console as your Home Console.

While your brother can't download your Game Pass games himself, you can install them for him like this:

Make sure your brother's account is added to your Family at
https://account.microsoft.com/family

Then let him sign in on his Windows 10 Account on his PC.

Start the Windows 10 Store app, and sign him out of the store.

Sign in with your own account in the store app, and install the game(s).

After the installation is done, sign out of the store and let your brother sign in on the store again.

Be aware that you ONLY sign in on the store app. You do not need a complete own separate account on your brother's PC.

If you sign in on a separate account on his PC, your brother won't be able to access the games you install in your user area on his PC.

After posting the question I tinkered with the accounts and this was the actual solution I used to resolve my query, this is the most on-point answer that could be given
