Unlock the Vault: A Simple Guide to Xbox Game Sharing

Want to play more Xbox games without breaking the bank? Game sharing is your answer! It lets you share your digital game library with a friend or family member, allowing both of you to enjoy your purchases. Here's how it works:

First, you'll need access to the Xbox account of the person you want to share with. Log into their Xbox console using your account details.

Next, go to 'Settings' > 'Personalization' > 'My home Xbox' and select 'Make this my home Xbox.' This designates their console as *your* home Xbox.

Now, your friend can log back into their account on *their* Xbox. They'll be able to download and play any digital games you own, even when you're not logged in!

Remember, you can only designate one console as your 'home Xbox' at a time. To game share with someone else, you'll need to repeat the process, setting their console as your new home Xbox. This will remove the setting from the previous console. Happy gaming!
