Xbox Game Pass Ultimate

Hi

My boyfriend owns an Xbox X and he has game pass ultimate. I just purchased an Xbox X for myself and I’m wandering if I can use his game pass on my account on my console? We will have both our accounts on both consoles. I’ll be extremely disappointed if we can’t do this and will have to pay for 2 subscriptions!

Many thanks!

    Firstly you set one Xbox up as the home Xbox

    Then login with the original account onto the new Xbox

    Once the account with Gamepass is on your Xbox and you are logged in then it should work on both consoles.

    The original account has to stay logged into your Xbox though.

    For example I want to play Starfield on my own account and console. My boyfriend has already started it. Will I be able to play it too, the same he’s playing it?

    Yes course you can. All you need to do is login as your boyfriend on your xbox then click the xbox button on your controller > Settings > General > Personalisation > Then select my home xbox. The only downside but it is very minor is your bf will need internet access to play any game regardless of if it is offline or not.

    Thanks guys but will we be able to play our own games the same time or will it log each other out?

    You'll be fine, me and my brother have had this setup for years where my account is the ultimate but his console is the home one. Can play as normal.

    Sweet! Do you know if we can share purchased dlc’s as well or do we have to purchase them individually. Thanks
