Summarize your bug I have next gen counsel Xbox series X. I am trying to play a friend of mine that is on my friends list who also has next gen counsel Xbox series X. We are both using madden 21 for next gen counsels series x/s. We were able to play a couple games. But all of a sudden my friends list now only shows 5/75 people and he is not one of them. We can chat and communicate. My NAT type is open as well as his. We initially removed each other from our friends list and then added each other. Then we have uninstalled madden and reinstalled madden and also did a hard shutdown of both our xboxes. We used two methods for the shutdown. First, we went and performed a full shut done in the general settings. After turning on the Xbox we then held down the Xbox button on the counsel and removed the power source from the Xbox for a full 5 min and powered on the Xbox. Still unsuccessful. Friends list is still empty. so now I am asking for help. What is the fix? If a fix isn’t identified are you working to identify a fix? If you’re working to identify a fix what is the expected timeline until a fix is available? Please keep me updated as you troubleshoot.

    When you both launch the game do you both see the X/S symbol on the game tile from My Games & Apps? (Verify you both are launching the game version of the game).

    Do you know if you or your friend accidentally has your online preference to show yourself as offline?
