What services are there and what functions were interrupted
You’re not the only one who can’t access their Xbox account or has been banned from the game.
Yesterday it was the turn of PlayStation Network, and today Xbox players are faced with the same problem, but in different circumstances: from 8 p.m. (Spanish peninsula time) the Xbox Live service. was interrupted Microsoft itself, meaning that those affected will be unable to log into their profiles or will be locked out of their games. So what now?
Until the issue is resolved, which is not being detailed, Microsoft has interrupted account access so we can’t access our profile and won’t let us play Game Pass games on consoles or PCs, or cloud games or even Backward Compatibility. After two hours, the service is back up.
In the case of PC, when we launch the Xbox app, we find that we cannot access games. However, and this is important, the app works, we can download games and updates. We can even download the app itself if it is outdated. What does it mean?
The key: Just like with the PlayStation crash, Xbox is already working on getting the service back online, though the big difference here is that nearly all of its non-account-access features are still working, including security, the store, and even the rewards program.
Is it possible to play? Technically, you can access games that do not require us to log in through our profile and are not related to backward compatibility. The same applies to social activities. In fact, by accessing the status page, we will see real-time tracking of issues and will even be able to request notification when Xbox Live is reactivated and the games we left running resume.
This issue affects players all over the world, and it goes without saying that the lack of access to the profile or disconnection severely limits our options. In any case, such circumstances usually do not last long, but always require resolution without haste.
From our side, in VidaExtra we will update the text content once the Xbox Love service is restored and resumes normal operation.
