Thousands of Xbox users worldwide have reported that their Xbox Store wishlist disappeared. Many initially got an email that one or more games in their wishlist were on sale, and when they checked it out, the wishlist was already wiped clean.

Since the issue is affecting users globally and is so widespread, we believe it’s a bug or a temporary server issue to blame. Another critical aspect that helped us come to the conclusion is the fact that re-adding the games to the wishlist doesn’t help. They disappear again!

Given that many have alreadyreported the problem to Xbox, it should positively be fixed within48-72hours.

Microsoft forums, X (formerly Twitter), and Reddit are filled with such reports, and it’s increasing by the hour, highlighting that the problem is still present.

A few users have reportedly lost the maximum 300 saved games in theXbox Storewishlist. Though, most had it in the 10-50 range. If you, too, are facing the issue, fret not!

Microsoft will, most likely, fix this as soon as possible, and any games on the wishlist will be restored. In all likelihood, you won’t lose them!

As of this moment, we can confirm that the problem persists with our Xbox Store wishlist and also for other users we talked to. So, wait for another 48-72hours!
