Is Xbox Game Pass down right now?

No. Our checks are finding no problems with Xbox Game Pass right now. That verdict is live, and the banner at the top of this page carries it too. We re-check Xbox Game Pass continuously using its official status feed, direct network probes and reports from visitors, stopping at the first check that gives a clear answer, and the page updates itself as soon as anything changes. A green verdict does not rule out a fault affecting only some users or regions.

The problems visitors report most often on this page are video won't play, can't log in, cloud saves not loading, website / app down, lag or disconnects, can't connect, store or purchases and files won't sync. Those are the options the report button offers for Xbox Game Pass, chosen for how this service actually fails rather than a generic list, and the "user reports" chart above breaks down which ones people are picking right now.

Our checks run from one place on the internet, so a fault limited to your region or network can be real while our probes succeed. With Xbox Game Pass specifically, Game Pass has separate backend systems for library catalog, game streaming, cloud saves, and licensing validation that can fail independently, and your console or PC may have cached an expired license token. That is why this page reports what it observed rather than declaring the service healthy, and why reports from other visitors count toward the verdict.

For Xbox Game Pass, try launching a different game from your library, then check your subscription status at account.microsoft.com/services. A problem that follows you across networks and devices is very unlikely to be yours.

If this page shows evidence of problems, the fault is most likely on Xbox Game Pass's side. Specifically: do not repeatedly launch the same game or reinstall it, as this can corrupt your local cache and make recovery slower once the service returns. Reporting it here helps other people see they are not alone.

Continuously, around the clock. Xbox Game Pass does not publish a machine-readable status feed, so we cannot read a verdict from them. We probe gamepass.com directly over HTTP, fall back to an ICMP ping if that is inconclusive, and weigh reports from visitors. That means we can tell you the service is unreachable, but not what Xbox Game Pass says about it. The verification tier box on this page names whichever check produced the verdict you are reading, so you can see how direct the evidence is.

Yes, at support.xbox.com/en-US/xbox-live-status, and it is linked further up this page. That is Xbox Game Pass's own account of their service and it is the place to look for their estimate of a fix. We read it where we can, but we publish our own observations beside it rather than only repeating theirs, because an operator's status page can lag a problem their users are already hitting.

No. status.buzz is an independent monitoring site operated by LuzLab LLC, with no connection to Xbox Game Pass or gamepass.com. It reads publicly available endpoints and status feeds, and publishes what it observed. For account or billing problems you need Xbox Game Pass's own support, not us.
