Home Gold and sharing digital games on Xbox One
Players can share their library with anyone on the same console, or bring it with them
Microsoft has announced new details on how digital game sharing will work on Xbox One, as well as Home Gold program.
Everyone at home can share digital games with each other - anyone can pick any digital game on your Xbox One, sign in with their own gamertag and play – even if the owner is not signed in. Like physical media, you can play many digitally downloaded games without being online.
Further, an unlimited number of people can use some benefits of Xbox Live Gold while they are using your Home Xbox One console. Friends and family will simply create their own account and gamertag and be able to use Xbox Live online multiplayer gaming and access entertainment apps.
Players can also use and share digital games when you sign in to another console. This is part of what is being called Home Gold. Any Xbox Live Gold member on Xbox One can extend some Gold subscription features to others at no additional cost. You can log in at a friend’s house and everyone there can enjoy multiplayer gaming and access to entertainment apps while you are logged in.
As was already known, Xbox Live Gold membership for Xbox 360 will carry over to an Xbox Live Gold account on Xbox One.
