“Hello Xbox members, we’re currently experiencing an issue ,” the service update reads.

While the Xbox Live service page doesn’t suggest anything is wrong with game purchases and downloads, it does say that Fortnite: Battle Royale is currently limited. That particular user says his downloads have come right since, but other users are flocking to the thread complaining of the same issue. One second I’ll get 500kbps the next I’m at 230mbps and then it stops all together just to go to 14mbps and back down and start again.” “Update: the download speeds have now decided to freak out. “Anyone know why this is happening or how to fix it “My download speeds have for some reason dropped dramatically from my usual 40-60 mbps to 500kbps,” an original thread from CeasartheApeGod reads. Over on Reddit, a number of users have assembled to speak of the same experiences. At the same time, a detailed network statistics check has shown that our Xbox is still capable of 15MB/second downloads.

Update 2: An Xbox representative has confirmed the issue exists.
