Xbox Live Usage Spikes As People Stay Home During Coronavirus Outbreak
Microsoft’s online gaming network, Xbox Live, is experiencing increased demand as people stay home from work and school amid concerns around the spread of COVID-19 (coronavirus).
Xbox boss Phil Spencer confirmed this in a tweet, saying Xbox Live “usage is up on almost everything.” He went on to thank his operations and IT teams, and those working for “all the companies” that supply online services at this time.
Given how many workplaces and schools are closed due to the virus outbreak, it makes sense that internet usage overall would increase, and this includes gaming.
