No I missed it, everything I have seen so far looks brilliant though.

Not really into competitive multiplayer these days, so hoping the campaign is a good one.

You own both 360 and Xbox One versions, so can be played on both, not just profile tied.

So both versions can be played by any profile on both consoles? I thnk that's what you're saying. Anyone know when you'll be able to buy it/pre-load on Xbox 360?

stuman · 6 Sep 2014 at 21:27

Aye.
I download loads of games and my missus can play them no issue, with her account. As long as you download to the one console, if you have another Xbox 360, you'll need to transfer the licence, otherwise, the owners profile needs to be signed on. Hope this is clearer

You dont need to transfer licences.
Use your profile to download the game onto your 2nd Xbox. Then use your profile to re-download the game on your Xbox.

Use your profile to download the game onto your 2nd Xbox. Then use your profile to re-download the game on your Xbox.

The profile that owns the game must sign in for other users to use unless you transfer licence via XB website afaik. The downloaded Xbox game can still run it till licence is transferred.

So in theory then I could:

Buy the game digitally on my son's Xbox 360 signed in as me.

He can play the game on his own account on this Xbox 360.

I can then download it and play it on my Xbox One as myself.

When he gets his own Xbox One I could transfer the Destiny licence to his Xbox One from mine, he can then sign in as himself and play Destiny on his own console.

I could also play Destiny signed in as myself on my Xbox One.

No, when you buy a game it has two licenses. One attached to the console and the other to your gamertag.

For example.....you have two Xboxes. X1 is yours, X2 is the wifes.

Log in to X2 with your profile. Buy content. Content is linked to X2 AND your gamertag.
Log in to X1 with your profile and re-download the game.

Both Xboxes can play the game at the same time and on different profiles.

The bit about Xbox 360 is correct.

Not sure about Xbox One as you will have already downloaded it onto your Xbox One.

I havent looked into managing licenses on Xbox One.

I think I'd just need to make his Xbox One the "home console" so that any content under my profile can be played by anyone without me being signed in. On my own console I should also be able to play it as I'm signed in.
