If I also buy POE2 early-acces for Xbox. Can my friend couch co-op with me for free?

Hi,


EDIT: I want to know if Couch Co-op is also available ONLINE. As in two different accounts logging on to the Xbox client, so my friend does not create a character on my POE account.


If I also buy POE2 early-acces for Xbox. Can my friend couch co-op with me withouth buying the Xbox version?

Meaning If my friend has the PC (steam) POE2 early access on his account and connects his account to Xbox account. Would he be able to login as a second couch co-op account localy on my xbox without having to buy the game a second time?


This is how it usually goes for most games. Only the person owning the Xbox would have to own the game and the other person can join split-screen for free.

Please let met know ^^.

Hi there, as stated here:

Is couch co-op available in Early Access?

Yes, you can play Path of Exile 2 in couch co-op mode on a single account right from the start. The second player will be able to create a character on that account.

Im not asking if my friend can make an character on my account on xbox. Can he join couch co-op on my xbox by signing in with his POE 2 account withouth having to purchase xbox version if I bought it already?

No

That would be just coop?

Yes, but on the same screen isntead of 2 characters on 1 account. Aka he logins in as guest account and we both play together on 1 screen. And when he leaves, he can play on PC and continue with his character, instead of having to come over each time.

In general you need EA for Xbox if you want to play on Xbox. So I would say that would be not possible since he has EA on pc. He would need both.
