Transfer games from old Lumia to a new one

[WPCentral Question]

Hi! I'm currently using a 925 and planning on switching to a 1520. Will I be able to transfer my current games to the new device?? And by games I mean, along with the game progresses. I'm using WP8.1 on my 925 and will update the 1520 to the same once I get it.

On a side note, what will happen if I use my MS account on both the devices simultaneously??

You can transfer apps and games via windowsphone.com/en-us/my/purchase-history , if progress is associated to your account you should be able to continue playing from where you left off . There should be no issue using the same Microsoft Account (both phones will appear when you navigate to windowsphone.com).

As for game saves it depends on the actual game if it has the option to save to cloud or not. Transfer all games to sd card then put the sd card in your new phone
