Xbox Live is Currently Down for All Users
Xbox Live is currently down for many Xbox users on all fronts, like Xbox Game Pass and even the support page. The outage comes at an inconvenient time, as Obsidian’s The Outer Worlds 2 is in the middle of its launch today. As for what the cause is, it looks to be an Azure service outage, as Obsidian Support has mentioned in a tweet.
Outages for Xbox Live are rare, but when they happen, it causes a lot of problems for many players. Without access to the internet, you can’t play multiplayer, purchase items, or download anything. So, when it goes down, it’s a big deal. Unfortunately, it just so happened to shut down today with The Outer Worlds 2 and Battlefield: REDSEC starting up.
