Platform
Primary: our account is set as the home Xbox of your console ("My home Xbox"), so the game is shared with your own profile and works offline — that is one slot on one console. Secondary: you sign in to our account and launch the game from it, and the console has to stay online. The activation code is an extra option: it is redeemed on your own account, and the game stays there forever.
You install the game from our account and set our account as the home one ("My home Xbox"): after that you play from your own profile, and the progress and achievements stay yours. It works offline.
You sign in to our account and play right from it. A permanent internet connection is required and only the issued profile can be used. It costs less than the primary access.
A bonus way to buy: you get a 25-character code and redeem it on your own account. The game stays with you forever, no other profiles and no sign-in to a shared account.

How to activate
Guide for Xbox One
Primary — the game is shared with your own profile
- 1Press the Xbox button, open "Profile & system" → "Add or switch" → "Add new" and sign in with the login and password from your order.
- 2Now open "Settings" → "General" → "Personalization" → "My home Xbox" and choose "Make this my home Xbox". This is what shares our games with every profile on your console.
- 3Switch back to your own profile, open "My games & apps" → "Library" and install the game. The internet is only needed for the download.
- 4Launch the game from your own profile: achievements, saves and progress stay yours, and after the installation the game works offline.
Only one console at a time can be the home Xbox for our account — that is the slot you bought. Please do not change the password, the email or the two-factor settings of the account, or the access will be blocked.
Secondary — you play from our account
- 1Press the Xbox button, open "Profile & system" → "Add or switch" → "Add new" and sign in with the login and password from your order.
- 2Open "My games & apps" → "Library", switch to our profile in the top-left corner and install the game.
- 3Launch the game while our profile stays signed in, and keep the console online: the licence is checked over the internet.
- 4Use your own profile for everything else — the game stays available as long as our account is signed in on this console.
Secondary costs less, but it needs a permanent internet connection and our account stays signed in on your console.

- 1On the console open "Store" and go to the "Redeem code" section.
- 2Enter the 25-character code from your order and confirm the activation on your own account.
