Xbox Live is rarely down, though, so for most it’s worth the potential inconvenience to pool games with a friend. Naturally, the downside is that if you lose internet access for whatever reason, you won’t be able to play any games for the duration. On your own Xbox console, you sign in using your internet login, which remains active while you’re using the console, providing you have internet at the time.

Using these dual logins, you can sign into a friend’s Xbox console and set it as your home console, which means it retains a permanent authentication for Xbox services and games even if you’re not actually using it yourself. So far Ive added my wifes Microsoft account to my Family in browser but the game pass does not seem to show up on her Companion App.

You also have a remote or cloud login, which can be used simultaneously with a second Xbox console, as long as there’s an active internet connection. Not sure if this has been touched on before, but Id like to know if I can share my game pass games with my wife on PC. You can sign into one Xbox console as your “Home” Xbox, which will let you retain access to digital games even when the console is disconnected from the internet. Heres exactly how to change your Home Xbox: Sign into the console using your Gamertag. First, you need to access your chosen console, and set it up as your 'Home' device. Your Microsoft Account that you use to sign into Windows 10 and Windows 11 PCs, Xbox consoles, and other Microsoft services can be used on two consoles at once. The process of Game Sharing on Xbox One, Xbox Series X and Series S is pretty simple.
