The Xbox Live sign in issues experienced by the online service in the last few hours have finally been fixed by Microsoft, and now users can sign into their profiles and play games online, such as the new Titanfall.

Xbox Live was put under a heavy strain yesterday, as quite a lot of Xbox One owners assaulted the online service in order to experience the new multiplayer-only first-person shooter from Respawn Entertainment – Titanfall.

Unfortunately, the service eventually buckled under the pressure and, for the last few hours, users have been unable to actually sign into the online service. This in turn meant that they were unable to play games online, like the multiplayer-only Titanfall, and access different entertainment apps or services, such as Netflix.

Now, after a lot of maintenance work, Microsoft has confirmed on its Xbox Live status page that things are back to normal and that all users of the online service can finally sign into their profiles.

As such, they can now access everything Xbox Live has to offer, from multiplayer gaming, to entertainment applications and services.

Bear in mind, however, that there are still a few problems with the Netflix app on the Xbox One console, but a fix is coming in the following hours.
