Multiplayer Gaming Question

[britbox]

Hi gamers...

Question...

If I buy 2 XBox One Consoles and have two screens already, can I and A.N.Other play the same game from Console 1 but instead of a split screen have each the players screen displayed on separate TV's (full size) and just buy one copy of the game.

i.e.
Console 1 has a game and a TV
Console 2 has a TV.

Do I have to buy the same game twice or can I multi-play with one copy, 2 XBoxes and 2 TVs?

I would assume you have to get two copies for sure. I don't see how could the second console read the game. I assume you'll be playing the other person online (even if he's sitting right next to you)?

Worth asking on some specific gamer forum as there's always the possibility someone has made some cool extra long splitter hd cable that can plug into one console and one tv at the same time. I'm sure loads of people would love to be able to do this so surely someone could make such a cable. It'd sell by the truckload. Can't imagine Microsoft would sell it though
