Moreover, even when the glitch was fixed some users faced intermittent issues while entering the three games; Rouge Company, Smite and Rec Room. Gamers also faced issues with Purchasing Content and Party Chat features of the Xbox.
The company throughout the outage, kept the users updated and finally after a tough time of five and a half long hours announced that things are back to normal. In their social media post, Xbox developers also wrote, “Users should once again be able to sign-in, complete purchases and join chat sessions. Thank you for your patience and as always, we’re listening.”
