  • Here's how to quickly copy games and apps from one Xbox One console to another. This works for Xbox One, Xbox One S, Xbox One X, Xbox Series S, and Xbox Series X. Each console must be connected to the same network or WiFi. Your game data will automatically sync when you sign in with your Gamertag.
    ** This is NOT how you get free Xbox games. You need to use an account with these games in the purchase history to play these games - or insert the disc.
    With Xbox One X release around the corner, you are now able to easily transfer your games and apps from any Xbox One console to another through your local network. This is the easiest and hassle free way to copy games. To sync game data just sign in and it will sync when you start a game.

    UPDATE: For the hundredth time, honestly this is the most asked question and I answer it every time in the comments. Save game data is tied to your gamertag. All you have to do is sign in and play, your save data will sync.
    I managed to transfer 700GB+ of games with the Network Transfer feature overnight. It appears this feature also utilizes the "instant on" power setting and will continue to transfer if both consoles are "turned off" - granted it moved faster when both consoles are powered on.
    This way I kept the games I have on my external and just transferred games on the internal hard drive.
    Hope this helps, if you have any questions let me know and I'll do my best to answer them!

      Hey I have a question, so my brother has cod ww2 and I wanted it, so I network transferred it. Whenever I go to play it on my Xbox it says your preorder must’ve been canceled or refunded. Which it was a while back but why would that have anything to do with a network transfer. I even signed out and tried to play it but it gives me the do u own this game or app thing. So my question is, Do I have to own the game or app that I am network transferring to be able to play it?

    • @ChiefCanuck

      You just need to sign in on the console with the account that owns the game.
