Competition among companies has been peaking every day. So, they are constantly trying to release new stuff to keep their users hooked. But with every good thing, there is always a possibility of something going wrong. This can easily be justified after what Xbox users went through last night.

Like every year, Microsoft’s Xbox is currently developing new games for the future. Due to this, they claim users might face trouble using their devices.
Xbox users are tired of signing in.
If you’re looking forward to playing some of your favorite games on Xbox, I’m sorry, but you can’t. Last night, users all across the world started getting a message saying, ‘The person who bought this game needs to sign in.’ on their consoles. The issue started with gamers being unable to purchase games/ launch cloud gaming.
To this, Xbox apologized to its fans on Twitter and said, ‘We understand users are still experiencing issues launching games and starting Cloud Gaming sessions. We have the right people investigating and will update you here as we get more information. Thank you for your patience.’

But that did not end here, as multiple users started tweeting about the issue repeatedly. Here’s what they had to say.
When I try to start a game it says the person who bought this needs to sign in why does it say that? If I’m the one who bought it

@XboxSupport I tried to play a game and it said for this game you need to be online, and then it said the person who bought this game needs to sign in even though i use the same xbox at the same place everyday. If anyone sees this please let me know how to fix.
