Yesterday it was PlayStation Network's turn and today Xbox players are facing the same problem, but under different circumstances: from 8pm (Spanish peninsular time) the Xbox Live service has been interrupted by Microsoft itself, which means that those affected will not be able to log in with their profiles or will be disconnected from their games. And now that?
Until the issue is resolved, which has not been detailed, Microsoft has interrupted access to accounts, so that we cannot access our profile and it prevents us from playing Game Pass titles on consoles or PCs, as well as cloud gaming or even backwards compatibility. Two hours later, the maintenance continues.
In the case of PC, when running the Xbox app we find that it is not possible to access the games. However, and this is significant, the app works and it is possible to download games and updates. It is even possible to download the app itself if it is out of date. What does this mean?
The main thing: just like when PlayStation went down, Xbox is already working to re-enable the service, although in this case the big difference is that practically all of the service's functions that do not involve accessing the account are operational, including security, the store, and even the rewards program.

Is it possible to play? Technically, you can access games that do not require you to log in through your profile and that are not related to backward compatibility. And the same applies to social activity. In fact, by accessing the status page we will see the tracking of the problem in real time and we can even request a notification for when Xbox Live is reactivated and we can resume the games we left off.

The problem affects players worldwide and it goes without saying that not being able to access the profile or being disconnected drastically limits what we can do. In any case, these types of circumstances do not usually last long, but they always require a quick solution.
For our part, At VidaExtra we will update the content of the text once the Xbox Love service is restored and its operation resumes its normal course.
