Now Playing: 5 Things PS5 And Xbox X NEED To Fix | Generation Next
We are aware that some users are encountering issues launching their games. Our engineers are investigating. You can check here and our status page for updates. https://t.co/kQKp1LYR4o.

The problem doesn't appear to extend to other Xbox Live services, including online gameplay. You shouldn't have any issue playing a multiplayer title, provided you can get your game to load, but there isn't a timetable for when the issues will be fixed.
If you visit the official Microsoft support page, you can sign up for notifications about exactly when the problem is resolved.
With any luck, Xbox Live won't be having any issues on November 10. That's when both the Xbox Series X and Series S launch, and we're still seeing preorders pop up sporadically online.
