Red Dead and Others Now Backward Compatible: An Exciting Update

Welcome to Wqaindia! We have an exciting update for all the Xbox One gamers out there. It appears that Red Dead Redemption, Tekken Tag Tournament 2, Left 4 Dead 2, Halo Wars, and Castlevania: Symphony of The Night are now technically backward compatible on Xbox One. While Microsoft has not made a public announcement yet, users have discovered listings for these games on the Xbox One marketplace.

Backward Compatibility Update: What You Need to Know

The process to download these games is a bit convoluted, so let’s break it down. First, you’ll need a digital copy of the Xbox 360 game (unfortunately, a disc copy won’t work). Once you have that, simply follow Xbox user “rockohoward” to find the listings for the games he has downloaded. It’s important to note that these games are not yet ready for distribution and may be in a testing phase.

What Microsoft Has to Say

We reached out to Microsoft for a comment, but as of now, we have not received a response. It’s important to exercise caution when attempting to download these games through this process. While on the surface, it seems legitimate, there could be valid reasons why Microsoft has not released them to the public yet. The games may be unoptimized and untested, or there may be other technical issues. Alternatively, Microsoft may simply not be ready to make the announcement for PR reasons.
