    xBox Live Gold: Multiple consoles.


    Hi All,

    I have two xBox One S, one for each kid. Both having their own account.

    For them to play online, do i need to purchase two live gold subscriptions?

    Or is it possible to share one subscription within one household (if so, how)?

    Query mainly on live gold, but i guess same would apply to the other subscriptions, Game pass etc...

    Thanks

    :)

    No, I mean that:

    "Microsoft's Ben Kilgore said that multiple accounts will be able to ride on the same Xbox Live Gold membership, but that individual users will have access to their own friends lists and other personalizations."

    Multiple accounts on the same console with my Xbox Live Gold membership.

    Hi there,

    there is not an option to share subscriptions in one household.

    But since this is for 2 consoles, there is an alternate option.

    You can use the Home console feature. If for example one of your kids accounts has a Gold subscription that account is able to use the Gold features on any console that is connected to Xbox Live.

    That account is also able to assign one Xbox One console as their Home console, which will result that their Gold subscription is shared on that Home console, allowing other profiles on that Home console to use Gold features too.

    See this link for more information in regards to Home console features:
    https://support.xbox.com/xbox-one/xbox-live/xbox-live-gold-sharing-features


    This will also be the case for other subscriptions and for digital purchased games.

    In your situation, if child A has a Gold console, and assigns console 1 as their Home console, child B (and any other profile) will be able to use Gold features on console 1.

    Child A will be able to use Gold features on any other console as long as the console is connected to Xbox Live (Internet)

    Keep in mind that if their is a Service issue or internet issue, digital purchased games can only be played on the account's Home console.

    If you have any further questions feel free to ask

    xbox gold live on multiple consoles

    You can only have 1 Home console at a time. So you'd either have to set the kids' consoles as your Home consoles so they can access your content which would mean the two of you would no longer be sharing with each other. Or continue to share the way you
    have been and purchase at least 1 more gold subscription for the kids.

    For the profile that has the Gold subscription, it will work on both consoles, at the same time.
