Hello

I'm looking into getting an Apple TV but have some doubts.

We have an Apple One subscription, family plan. My wife likes to plan some games from Arcade, I play some others. These games are all available on Apple TV too.

I am wondering if we get an apple tv and add user accounts for each of us, will the games use the information only from the main account (mine) or will she be able to retrieve her games from cloud once a user is created for her with her apple id ?

thanks,

Not tried this, but according to Apple most of what you want should be possible:

It’s easy to share Apple TV with multiple household members. When each member in a household has an Apple ID, you can create unique user profiles on Apple TV associated with the Apple ID of each household member, with Up Next lists, system language preferences, paired AirPods settings, music, Game Center data and content recommendations personalised for the currently active user.
