Microsoft to add more games to Xbox 1 backwards compatibility.
Microsoft are going to be adding more games to their backwards compatibility feature of the Xbox 1 series. Two new sets are being released later this month, starting on the 17th of April.
So what are the games?
The set to be released for the 17th will include the following games.
- Blinx: The time Sweeper
- Breakdown
- Conker: Live and Reloaded
- Hunter: The Reckoning
- Jade Empire

On the 26th of April, even more games will be playable. The list is:

If you own the disc’s, you will be able to put them in the system and download them, or you can purchase them from the Microsoft store for different prices. If you own an Xbox 1 X you will be able to get better framerate and enhanced graphics. A few Xbox 360 games are getting an enhanced backwards compatibility update but only for the Xbox 1 X. These include:
- Darksiders
- Gears of War 2
- Portal 2
- Red Dead Redemption
- Sonic Generations
- Star Wars: Force Unleashed
That’s all from me, but I’ll leave links to the info below.

OG Xbox and 360 games look CRISP on XB1, I’m very impressed. Oh and Force Unleashed tho!
This is cool. I hope Sony will be the underdog again during the next gen so they would feel obliged to provide nice features like this as well.
Is Panzer Dragoon Orta available for purchase as digital copy on Microsoft Store?
yes, i think so
If it isn’t yet, it will be. Every game made backwards compatible for the Xbox One goes for sale on the digital store as well.
not one game i hoped for! whats about some adult games? suffering, suffering – ties that bind, cold fear, wolfenstein, the punisher, MANHUNT!
Its a shame Sony doesn’t use a similar system for the PS2 games on PS4 :/
baba booey! This is great now all we need bc compatible games for spikeout cap vs snk 2 and cap vs chaos and all the dead or alive games!
1- make your system backwards compatible like most
2- restrict it to a few games
3- have low quality news outlets like this report every time you add new games
4- make it look like you’re working hard while all you do is update a whitelist
5- ????
6- profit
