Up to 6, sharing your shareable games library

Adult and child accounts, limit child accounts, approve and pay for child buy requests,

Intended for close household family; can't join a different one until one year after joining

If a family member gets banned for cheating while playing your copy of a game, you (the game owner) will also be banned in that game. Other family members are not impacted.

Ooh I hope that's the case because that would be much more convenient

Edit for anyone who stumbles on this: it works exactly like the above commenter described! It looks like there's some opportunity to better communicate what DLC the "copy" you select is installing since it doesn't show a full list of DLC but it at least shows who's library it's pulling from so you should be able to infer the full DLC list based on who has all of the DLC
