Xbox Servers Are Down, Some People Unable To Log In Or Play Games

Xbox’s online servers are down today, July 2, with some people reporting that they are having difficulty connecting to games and services on the platform.

For what it’s worth, the official Xbox server status website says all services and up and running normally. However, with a server network as large as Xbox’s, your mileage may vary. Some people are unable to log in at all. Microsoft’s own game accounts have acknowledged the server troubles. “We apologize for the inconvenience,” Microsoft said.

The Xbox Support account said Microsoft is “aware that some users have been disconnected from Xbox Live.” The company said it is “investigating” the matter.

The Xbox Network, formerly known as Xbox Live, experiences server hiccups and other connectivity issues on a semi-regular basis. However, this latest downtime was significant enough to trigger fans to take to social media to complain and express frustration.

The Call of Duty fan account CharlieIntel reported that Call of Duty’s servers were among those affected by the issues today. Microsoft will no doubt hope to fix the issues quickly, as the Xbox Network is sure to be flooded with users in the coming days for the 4th of July weekend.

GameSpot will update this story as the server situation evolves, so keep checking back for the latest.
