    Xbox Game Pass Ultimate

    Thanks for the advice.

    As myself and my son very likely just play in our PC, not on a console, so may I recap if my understanding is correct l:

    1. Claim the game pass key under my own email address in my Microsoft account

    2. Through my Microsoft family, my son can share the subscription as my family member

    3. Register my xBox account same email as my Microsoft account email which claimed the game pass

    4. In my son's laptop, he also create his xbox account using his email address which is the same as his email in my Microsoft family setting

    5. In my son's laptop, somewhere in his xBox setting, add my email as the Microsoft store account. I think it is how his xbox account get access into the game pass.

    I will try out how the step 5 when I get the game pass key.

    In the meantime, is my understanding correct that if my son login his xbox app and I login my xbox app at the same time in our two computers, both of us can play our own games at the same time?

    Is there any limit of xbox account that can add my Microsoft store account?

    And is there any limit how many of those accounts can play games at the sane time?

    Really appreciate your advice

    Cheers

    Games pass for family members

    Regarding Game pass on Xbox. If you have a game pass you can set your box as homebox.

    Then, any other account can share your subscriptions, games, and apps on that Xbox. You can Buy Ultimate and then one of your sons when logged with your account on The PC can have a game pass. Then you must buy a game pass for PC to another son, but with
    his account. If you want both of them to have their own PC game pass, then you must buy a game pass for each account, but with their accounts. Homebox

    Two consoles, one house, one all access pass

    Put the xbox game pass ultimate under one of their accounts. So for example.. Son#1 has game pass ultimate make his home xbox as the xbox that son#2 uses that way anyone that uses that xbox can use the game pass ultimate without having him sign in since its his home xbox.. what this means is make the xbox one x son#1 home console.. then have son#1 play on the xbox one and have son#2 play on the xbox one X or vice versa.. this is the only way they can both play at the same time using one game pass ultimate account. Because son#1 will have to sign into the xbox one so he can play therefore it wont kick anyone out of the game pass on the xbox one x since thats his home xbox. If theres another way i dont know about it. Because we have 3 xboxs and we can use 2 of them this way at the same time so my son and daughter can both play against each other but unfortunately theres no way to do it on more then 2. It sucks for family's with more then 2 xboxs also sucks when you have more then 2 ppl that want to use the game pass ultimate at the same time. Microsoft needs to change this, my suggestion would be for them to make a family game pass ultimate subscription where you can add your family members up to say 5 or 6 members to your family subscription and they can use game pass ultimate anywhere anytime. That would be nice. But unfortunately this is what we are stuck with for now. Maybe it'll change in the future

    Fc24 game share

    Brilliant thanks, the new xbox has free 3 months ultimate game pass. My other son has a subscription of core game pass £6.99 a month. Will the ultimate game pass also share once the old xbox is home xbox? And do I can old subscription?

    Sorry for all the questions, we were terrible with technology 🤣
