Hello @clear estuary,
Thank you for reporting this issue. I'm sorry you experienced this crash. 🙇‍♀️

Did you encounter any trouble joining the session before the crash occurred (like there was a prompt saying "Connection Unstable", "Session not found", etc.)?

Also, could you check if the problem you faced looks similar to what’s shown in another player's video here?

Hello @clear estuary,
Just checking in — does the crash issue still happen when you load the Co-op save file?

If it does, could you confirm again if the crash happens while you’re Hosting and playing through Xbox on PC?

Thanks a bunch for your help! 🙏

Same issue for me. Crash has been consistent. No warning or errors just crashes Xbox everytime I try to load. I am not hosting a crossplay server tho just Xbox to Xbox. No matter which Xbox I try to load it on it does the same thing

• Crash when loading Xbox multiplayer save
• Single player saves load fine and show backup saves but multiplayer doesn’t. Anyone trying to load save it automatically crashes and sends to Xbox home
• Happens everytime I try to launch multiplayer save only
• Xbox
• v1.2-1238
• Controller

Game still crashing when trying to launch save even after update. Is my save corrupted why is there no option for backups for multiplayer?

Gotcha thanks sorry I never seen this reply. Still 3 weeks later the save will not load. Guess I will have to start a new game and hope it doesn’t do it again
