Oust ion about the season pass

Post » Wed Feb 24, 2016 3:53 am

I bought fallout 4 with the season pass on digital on my brothers ps4 on his account but I play its on my own account on the same ps4. I want to know if I will still get all the dlcs for free on my account. Every time I go to the PlayStation store on my account it shows that I didn't buy the pass but when I go on my brothers account it says that I bought it

If you activate the PS4 as your primary PS4, the DLC that is actually downloaded and installed on the console should be usable by other users on the same PS4.



First off, your PS4 has to be activated as your main console for you, to share DLC on it.



On the console, go to Settings -> PSN -> Activate as your Primary PS4.



If you don't have it activated, you cannot share DLC content with other users!



Once you have activated it, you should be all set. If you have done this already, and it's not working, you should probably call Sony to figure out what's wrong.



>>> If you have activated it, DO NOT DEACTIVATE, or you will certainly have to call Sony to activate the console again. <<<

You partially answered your own question... You said you bought the game and season pass on your brother's account, which means your brother's account owns it, not you. It will never show on the store that you have it, unless you actually purchase on your account.


As long as his account stays active as the main account on the shared PS4 then Fallout and it's DLC's will be playable by all users on the PS4.

Yep and keep it mind, developer can be a scumbag and make it user locked.



Example: Ubisoft's The Crew




I hope gamesas don't do that. Because I'm playing in my asia account, while my game and season pass is USA region (R1).



However, this is what pulls me back from buying season pass until I'm sure. 30 bucks is no joke amount to be spent and unused.
