1) Restart the game:
The first thing you need to do is restart the game regardless of the platform you are trying to play it on. Restarting the game will remove any issue that might be occuring due to a temporary bug or glitch.

5) Check the services of your console:
Whether you are playing the game on Xbox Series X/S or Xbox One, make sure that the Xbox Live’s online service is working. If the service is offline, consider trying after some time.
6) Check your controller:
Make sure that your controller is properly connected to the Xbox Series X/S & Xbox One. If the controller does not have a proper connection with your console, disconnect it and then connect it again. Although it might seem like an unrelated fix, your controller being disconnected can be the reason why you cannot get past the loading screen in FH5.
