yous can download as many times as you lot want, simply for any xbox that isnt set as dwelling you lot demand to be continued to xbox live with the account that bought it to play.

Yes the licenses are tied to your Microsoft account, not individual hardware.
level ane
In one case y'all own the licence you can download the games to equally many consoles as y'all wish, you lot just need to exist logged in to play them. Logging into one console will log you lot out from another (then you can just play one at a time)
You can actually copy the games from Xbox to Xbox over your home network or yous can re-create them to a USB 3 HDD and so move them to your new console. Saves downloading again
level 1
You can download them equally many times as yous like since they are tied to your account. You tin fix (1) home xbox though where all accounts on that xbox can play your games even if they don't own them. This allows you to have to people play the same game, even with each other, with one digital copy. Information technology is pretty cool. You tin change your home xbox but simply (3) times a yr I think.

Aye, and i proposition I have in case you do upgrade later, is to brand sure you accept a portable difficult drive to transfer the games that consist of a large amount of space.
That manner yous tin can transfer those games easily without having to download each game all over again.

This^ 1000x this. Having a removable storage is so convenient for this.
level 2
Y'all can also network transfer games/apps if both Xbox'due south are on the same network.
level one
Technically, y'all take two licenses for digital games. I allows games to be played on the device designated as your "Home Xbox" regardless of if you're signed in, and the other, as everyone else has pointed out, allows games to be played wherever you're signed in.
