Xbox Game Pass Ultimate - sharing

_Jimlad_ · 18 Dec 2024 at 14:01

Hi All,

i have had game pass ultimate for a while on the xbox, which has worked fine for me and my son to play with two profiles and share the experience, however we recently got a gaming laptop and again have the same two profiles, but his will not let him play any games.

is there a way around this ? seems odd you can share on the xbox, but not pc ?

Anyone have any ideas ?

A quick google shows a reddit thread suggesting you need to sign into the MS Store with the account that has an active GP sub, then sign into the xbox app with the other account. The thread is 3 years old though, so YMMV.

I share my sons xbox account on my PC - I have to sign in with his account to download everything but then can switch to my account and play - with the exception of the latest CoD game, which doesn't work!
