Frequent hard crashing

Xbox Series X
Random crashing, turns console completely off. Multiple times a session, lost so much loot. Game is currently unplayable and a waste of time for me.

Nothing unusual. Turn on console, launch game and queue up with friends via crossplay. We use Discord for comms. Friends are on PlayStation and PC. They never crash, it’s always me. It happens every day, at least twice if I don’t give up on playing after the first crash. Emotionally exhausting.

Hello there,
Thank you for your report.
We understand that you are experiencing constant crashes in Marathon. We're sorry to hear of this, as we can imagine the impact that this crashing may have had. If you haven't already tried doing so, you may wish to reinstall the game. This can sometimes help with issues of this nature. You'll find more information about this in the following guide.
If you continue to experience this crashing after the above suggestion, then please let us know if you're seeing any error codes when it occurs, and we'll review.
I'm am have the exact same experience..an Xbox series x user, all others games I have work perfectly fine for several hour long sessions no crashing but marathon will crash multiple times and go to dashboard- a few times even shutting my Xbox off.. crashed 10 minutes in to my first game session of the day. Honestly love the game but the constant crashing is ruining my experience
Agreed. Paid for the deluxe edition. Losing loot in real life and in the game. The only other title I’ve had such a severe issue with on the Series X is BF2042 and it took them 2 years to fix it. It’s a common problem with certain batches of the Series X (happens to my friend’s Xbox as well, and we got them in 2021 I think?) but it’s hard to accept that when only specific titles seem to trigger the hard crash.
But for example Warzone, BF6, Destiny 2, Forza H5, The Finals, Cyberpunk, Halo, no issues.
Hard crash 9:36pm EST. Dire Marsh, crossplay.
Same exact issue. Even bought a new power cable yesterday and it still happened after a while. It’s not the Xbox because no other game does this.
Same thing happens. Game crashes as soon as I get into a firefight or loot something nice. It’s ridiculous.

Froze about 20 minutes ago in Dire Marsh, relaunched and just hard crashed from the lobby while in my vault.
Finished deep cleaning my xbox about an hour ago. Took out the fan, disc, heat synch, made sure it was spotless. *sigh*

Hard crash in Perimeter.

Duos in Outpost, freeze, quit app, launch, 5-10 mins of gameplay and crash just before exfil. Seems like duos is now causing lag and hard crashing.

Duos, Outpost.
Got to step 6/6 Run/Hide contract completed the objectives, crashed at the guarded exfil and lost all my progress.
Can’t keep doing this.
