Microsoft adds more Xbox 360 games to the Xbox One Backward Compatibility list. In November, Microsoft rolled out its first major update for Xbox One that brings Windows 10 to the game console. The new version of the operating system not only brings a new user-interface, but it also includes a new feature that allows users to play their favorite Xbox 360 games on Xbox One.
However, in the past, the company said that not every Xbox 360 game will be playable through the Xbox One Backward Compatibility feature. Instead during the roll out of the major update, Microsoft announced the first 104 games that are compatible with Xbox One and said that more games will be added periodically.
Today, the company is delivering on the promise and announcing that 16 more Xbox 360 games had been added to the backward compatibility list, and now users can play a total of 120 games through the new feature.
Below you’ll find the list with all the new Xbox 360 games compatible with Xbox One, along with all the previous games announced back in November.
