TL;DR
- Microsoft is experiencing a major Xbox service disruption.
- Affected users are having issues signing in, finding games in the store, and playing titles they own.
- Microsoft says that it’s identified the source of this outage, but there’s not yet a fix available.
When it’s too hot to play outside, video games can be your best friend, keeping you entertained and scratching that competitive itch, right from the comfort of your couch. At least, that’s how things should be working, but this summer has already seen its fare share of gaming outages, like the service interruption that hit the PlayStation Network late last week. Now it’s Microsoft in the hot seat, as multiple Xbox systems go offline.
Microsoft’s Xbox status tracker confirms ongoing issues affecting sign-ins and viewing games in the store, but also more critically, problems playing both digital and disc-based games.
