Games With Gold on Xbox One: how will the subscription model?

As we already know , from June the program Games With Gold arrives on Xbox One with Max: The Curse of Brotherhood and Halo: Spartan Assault . At that time we had also mentioned that, while the Xbox 360 will not program variations, on Xbox One model "will download the game and is forever yours " to a " subscription " that will allow us to use free games only as long as we have an Xbox Live Gold membership active. This has created some confusion among the players, so let's be clear about how the mechanism will work, through a series of simple questions and answers.


If a game becomes free for the Gold in a time, when I can download it?

This will work as it is today. If Microsoft says that Max: The Curse of Brotherhood will be downloadable for free by users 1 to 15 Gold from June, then this will be the period in which you will be able to download the first time . Once you have downloaded will remain tied to your account.

I can play it only at that time or after?

Once you have downloaded the game, you can play it when you want even months after the initial download, as long as you have an Xbox Live Gold account.

If after downloading delete it, I can then continue beyond the initial period?

You. The game will be tied to your account, so you can then continue when you want, as long as you have an Xbox Live Gold account.

And if I get Gold membership expires?

In this case the game will no longer be bootable.

I downloaded a game, I ended my subscription but then after tot months I renewed. Will I be able to play again?

You. The game will be playable (or can be downloaded, if you hadn't removed from the hard disk) when rinnoverete Gold membership.

I downloaded games will be playable in this way from other profiles of my family even if they do not have the Gold?

This Microsoft has not yet specified, but on Xbox One all registered members on a Home console can play all games installed and receiving all Gold benefits of main profile. So we tend to think that it will be so again: all family members will be able to play any of the Games With Gold fetched until the main profile will have an Xbox Live Gold membership active.

We hope to have clarified some of your concerns: If you have friends or acquaintances who have not yet quite clear this operation, you can direct them to this article! And of course if you have any further questions write them down as well in the comments and we will try to clarify them together.
