    Share Minecraft with Family

    I've seen a more or less similar post but of 2016, so I was hoping things might be different now.

    Is it possible to buy minecraft once and share it with your kids on the family account and can they play it simultaneously?

    I find this whole family account and content sharing on the microsoft store very confusing. It is very obvious in the Google play store how that works and there I bough minecraft once and can share it with my kids who can play it simultaneously.

    Hi Greg

    Thank you very much. I followed the steps and it is working perfectly. The kids are now playing minecraft using the family accounts.

    Regards

    can't share minecraft with my family account

    Minecraft useability

    My daughter really wants to play Minecraft.

    Situation: she has her own laptop and Microsoft account. And I expect to have an Xbox One soon.

    • Can I purchase Minecraft games for her Microsoft account in a way that she can play it on her laptop and later on she can continue to play it on the Xbox under her account?
    • Can I purchase Minecraft on the family account and share it for free among my family so everyone (my son, daughter, my wife, me) can play it on the Windows 10 laptops and XBox One?

    Thanks!
