I have an Xbox series X and I pre-ordered Starfield a while ago. I can't install or update it, there's no options.

Anyone else have this issue?

No problem, it is crazy early for them to do a preload now, I agree

I believe the thinking behind the very early preload is so that the download servers aren't overwhelmed by the sheer number of people trying to download the game at the same time on release day. By having the preload over a few weeks it allows for a more spaced out period of time where people are downloading it, meaning less load on the servers.
