Restarting Xbox did the trick for me...

Had to do the same.

Suspect this was the cause.

Possible but more likely all the server issues mentioned here -

Only came right at about 11pm last night for me.

The comms from these guys have been brilliant though. Constant updates unlike with the Cyberpunk launch...

I was trying to play Warhammer....

Stuck on Authentication page with same error. Go out of the game... internet works... so rebooted console and it worked. No idea why.

Still had this issue about an hour ago.

Will try again later.

Seems when the US players are also trying to logon, that's when issues arise.

Managed to play for an hour or two earlier today

I solo pve content. Reason being I like to be in control of my story and the pace of the missions, and don't like people rushing through it because they're busy replaying stuff.

Squad up sometimes for pvp...

Hi Guys, anyone else experience a random black screen on Xbox Series S console sometimes? Especially when starting up a new game that wants to calibrate the screen area. Changing the the hdmi source on tv and going back to the source that the Xbox is connected to seems to fix/refresh it but I'm wondering what causes this. Playing on 55" 4K UHD tv @ 60Hz.

Suspect thats your TV. I has similar experience on my Media PC and older Hisense TV before I upgraded to Samsung.

Is your console set to 4K with perm upscaling, if not I would try that 1st.

nope, but I've got a Series X and I've tried it on 2 TVs without any issues.

I have not experienced this on the X. That sounds like a frustrating problem.

It’s almost certainly your TV. Can you download a firmware update for it?
