Check if your Xbox Series X needs a system update. Lag issues can often be fixed with the latest firmware. Go to Settings > System > Updates and see if there's anything new.
I had the same issue and fixed it by clearing the cache. Hold the power button for 10 seconds to fully shut down your console, then unplug it for a few minutes. It worked like magic for me!
Sometimes it's the game servers, not your console. Check the game's status on social media or websites like DownDetector to see if others report lag too.
If you're experiencing lag in online games, try reducing the number of devices connected to your network. You'd be surprised how much a streaming movie in the other room can affect your gaming!
