xbox live gold subscription family sharing for three console

knyazkov · Oct 19, 2016

Hey, how many consoles I merge into the family and share the gold subscription and purchased games? I have three children and three consoles can I simultaneously play previously purchased games on one gold subscription?

xbox "home gold" share Xbox One's premium features

Kinda sounds similar to the family share just a little tighter on the digital game sharing. It seems their may be a tier system for Xbox subscription so if your only using the TV & Netflix side it may be cheaper than the full gold package. Only time will tell at this point.

the new system "will enable any Xbox Live Gold member on Xbox One to extend many Gold features to others at no additional cost," Whitten wrote. "One Xbox Live Gold account delivering great benefits to everyone in the home."Click to expand...

I cant connect to LIVE

Greetings ghost huner148!

To be able to share games, downloadable content purchased, along with Xbox Live Gold sharing features, to anyone who sign in on your console, there has to be at least one account tied to a Gold subscription and the console has to be set as the designated
Home console

Since you are able to take advantage of the Gold sharing features on your oldest brother's Xbox One console, this would then mean that he has a Gold subscription and with his console set at Home.

According to your profile, it doesn't seem to be tied to Gold subscription.

You would need at least 2 subscriptions for 3 consoles. You can only share gold on 1 console at a time, the Home console. So if you have Account 1, Account 2, and Account 3. Account 1 could have gold and sets Console 1 as it's Home console, all 3 accounts
can share gold on that console. Account 1 can then sign into any other console and still use gold because it's tied to that account. Account 2 or 3 would need to have gold and set one of the other consoles as their Home console in order to share gold on that
console. Then either of the 2 gold accounts can use the 3rd console.

Thanks for your reply. Do I understand that I will have to re-purchase content for simultaneous games on consoles 3 or enough to buy 2 Gold subscription as you described?

You would need to buy at least 2, on the same accounts with gold.

you can share gold and gamepass on both consoles and just pay a membership just have the profile on both consoles and turn on the sharing option, another option is to make a family account and on the main pay for the subscription and share with your children's
accounts
