Xbox is currently facing disruptions across several online services, including issues with signing into the Xbox Network (formerly Xbox Live) and launching games. Microsoft initially recognized the problem on the morning of October 2, assuring users that updates would be provided as the support team investigates the root cause. On the official Xbox Status page, four key areas are marked as experiencing either 'limited' services or a 'major outage': Account & profile, Friends & social activity, Cloud gaming & remote play, and Games & gaming. While The Elder Scrolls Online was already undergoing scheduled maintenance, other games were expected to be accessible, but Microsoft warns that users 'may have problems launching games.' Additionally, users might encounter difficulties joining friends' parties or signing into their accounts. GameSpot will continue to monitor the situation and provide updates as the server status evolves, so stay tuned for the latest information.
