As a dedicated Xbox One gamer with a 2013 model console, I’m feeling a mix of frustration and concern as reports emerge that my beloved gaming device may be failing to download updates, effectively rendering it offline and virtually unusable. According to trusted sources like Digital Foundry and NeoGAF, some users have been unable to install system software updates on their Xbox Ones, whether new or used, even when attempting to do so offline via a USB device.

2013’s initial Xbox One model seems to be experiencing issues with update downloads for certain users, which effectively makes the console unavailable for use and nearly unusable.
