Black screen for franchise mode?

I play on Xbox series X and have never had a problem with madden until just a few days ago. I try to play a match from the franchise and the whole screen is pitch black that does not go away. I also have a interview thing that I can do in franchise as well but when I try that, it causes the whole game to freeze/crash. 

Also tried to go as a new team but I still have the same issue, however exhibition seems to be working fine.

    @godtheboi92 To confirm all of these issues seem to just come from franchise?

    Can you try unplugging all connected devices, restarting the console, and checking if you continue getting a black screen or freezes?
  • Yes, just franchise only. I have hard reset my Xbox, uninstalled and reinstalled madden and yet nothing is working.

    Hey @godtheboi92 To check are you on an insider build of the Xbox OS? 

    When you have a second try the following: 

    Reboot the power to the modem/router

    1. Unplug the power cable from your modem/router for 5-10 minutes to refresh the network.

    How to power cycle your Xbox console:

    1. Turn off the Xbox One console by pressing the Xbox button  on the front of the console for about 10 seconds until it shuts down completely.
    2. Unplug the console’s power cable. Wait 10 seconds.

    Important Be sure to wait 10 seconds. This step resets the power supply.

    1. Plug the console power cable back in.
    2. Press the Xbox button  on your console to turn on the Xbox One.
  • I don’t think Doing that won’t resolve anything.

    tried it on a different Xbox as well and still didn’t work 

  • I tried a different account, works  on there but it’s down on mine.
