UPDATE: The latest on today's Xbox Live outage from Microsoft confirms that core services are down for many Xbox One, Xbox 360, and Xbox on Windows users.

Current issues include: Signing in; creating, managing, or recovering an account; search.

"We are aware that some members may be having problems finding previously-purchased content or purchasing new content. We are working to resolve the issue as quickly as possible, and we will be sure to provide you with frequent updates."

Microsoft have also confirmed that there are ongoing issues with buying items, redeeming codes, and downloading purchases.

It appears that the outage is now being fixed though, with the number of affected players steadily going down.

ORIGINAL: While Microsoft themselves have not updated their Xbox Online status page, plenty of gamers are reporting problems with their Xbox One tonight.

According to those affected, Xbox Live is down, with many customers left unable to sign in, and instead of gaining access to their games, they are finding an error code flashing up.

The 0x87dd0006 error message is apparently hitting players across the world right now.

Some players are also reporting problems trying to play their games on the Windows 10 platform.
