Hi, I am thinking of selling my xbox one console, and was just wondering, if I removed my account, would the new owners be able to play the games that I downloaded from games with gold?

Thanks

No they will not be able to I'm pretty sure because you removed your account so home xbox turns off, so I think it wont work.

Okay because I tried making a new account on there and whilst signed into this I was able to play on the games?

That's because your account with the games on it has the setting of Home Xbox turned on. Which allows all users to play games which are purchased from your account.

Is there any way to test this?

You could delete your account and see if the games work. I doubt they will, but its worth a try.

If they don't is there any way to transfer my games to another account?

A lot of people on reddit have bought used Xbones with no profiles and still able to play pre purchased games. I could see how that could work because license for the games might be tied to the console it was bought on but people will say differently.
