In late July, a large number of Xbox players discovered they could no longer play their games.
That bug has now, says Xbox CTO Scott Van Vliet, been fixed, and further measures are being introduced to try to prevent a repeat of the situation.
But this was then exacerbated by the bug in “the XBOX client software stack.”
Van Vliet continues his explanation:We are transitioning ownership of the underlying licensing service to the XBOX team while our engineers are actively hardening the services and infrastructure for future updates.
The client bug has been fixed in an upcoming release, which starts rolling out today, August 10, and becomes mandatory August 17.
