As games get more expensive, parting with large sums of money might make your stomach turn. In Canada where I am located, standard editions of games are now around 80 Canadian Dollars. However, features like Xbox’s game-sharing make it so I might not have to spend money to play new games. For Modern Warfare 3, this would be needed since the game is expensive. If you’re if you can game share Modern Warfare 3 on Xbox, let’s find out below.
Modern Warfare 3: Can you game share on Xbox?
With Modern Warfare 3’s campaign in early access, you might be wondering if you play with your friend who doesn’t have the Xbox via game share. At the time of writing this guide, there’s no solid answer. However, according to some users, you might not be able to game share at all.
It should be noted that with the game being in early access, certain features like game share might not be available till the full release on November 10th. Even though things like cross-play and cross-progression might be apparent, expect more from Modern Warfare 3 upon its release date.
So if you’re planning to play Zombies with your friend, my suggestion would be to wait till the game fully comes out.
