Microsoft Will Fix Xbox Connectivity Bugs Soon

Fortunately, after several days of repeated outages, Microsoft announced on social media that services were mostly restored, and promised an update in the next few days which should fix all the bugs.

” We saw a significant improvement in the issue that prevented some users from buying and launching games “Xbox Support assured users in a recent tweet. ” We expect full mitigation in the next few days with the rollout of a new update “.

These breakdowns have especially helped to raise a major problem of Xbox. Indeed, some players wondered why theonline connectivity was necessary to launch video games in digital versionswhereas these are nevertheless downloaded on the hard disk.

The Xbox Series S was therefore the most affected by these outages, since it is a 100% digital console that does not have a disc drive. So the owners simply couldn’t play at all. Microsoft also wants to go further than the Xbox Series S with a Chromecast-style key to broadcast games on TV. It is hoped that these concerns will prompt Microsoft to make changes to the way digital games work on Xbox.
