DBD won’t allow me to play this game

I have anXbox Series X. When I launch Dead by Daylight, it takes me to the Home Screen of Dead by Daylight and the only option I can choose from (between PLAY, THE ARCHIVES, and STORE) is THE ARCHIVES. So as you can see, I cannot even get into this game to play it. I’ve tried deleting Dead by Daylight several times and reinstalling it, which works for a short time, but goes right back to doing the same thing with not allowing me to play it. What do I do here?

    Happened to me, too. My game was on standby for a day. Just booted it, and same thing happened to me. Wasn't able to play. I'm also on XSX. I'm not sure was it the suspended game or the newsfeed that caused it (popped up at the beginning).

    Got it fixed by closing the game via XBox menu itself and re-booting the game.
