Xbox Live is down again on Saturday

The online gaming service for Xbox One is once again having problems.

Xbox Live is down, according to Microsoft’s service website and hundreds of gamers on social media. This comes just two days after an alleged cyberattack took Xbox Live down for nearly all of Christmas. During this time Sony’s PlayStation Network has kept gamers on PlayStation systems offline for more than 48-hours straight.

“Unable to launch certain titles,” Microsoft’s site asks. “We’re working to fix this as soon as we possibly can. Thanks for your patience. We’ll fill you in on the status of this issue in a half hour.”

Microsoft has also just updated its status page to confirm that Xbox Live’s core services are having issues.

I think I'll be getting one soon. I hope they have this problem kicked by then.
