About Xbox Live

Xbox Network is an online multiplayer gaming and digital media delivery service developed by Microsoft. It launched on November 15, 2002, and is available across Xbox consoles, Windows, and mobile platforms. More information is at https://www.xbox.com/live.
Xbox Live, now often called the Xbox Network, is Microsoft's online service for multiplayer gaming and digital media. It handles sign-in, friends lists, matchmaking, game downloads, and store purchases. When the service has problems, players usually notice it first as failed logins, stalled updates, or trouble joining matches. This page collects current reports so you can see whether the issue is on Microsoft's side or closer to home.
Xbox Live connects Xbox consoles, Windows PCs, and mobile devices to Microsoft's gaming services. It covers account sign-in, online multiplayer, cloud saves, the Microsoft Store, and game streaming apps like Netflix on console. The parts that break most often are sign-in, download and update queues, social features such as the friends list, and server connections for specific games. Purchases can also fail at checkout when the store has issues. Before reporting a problem, check your internet connection and restart your console or app. Make sure your payment details and account information are up to date, and try a different game or feature to see whether the issue is widespread or limited to one service.
