Phil Spencer, the president of the Xbox division, has not closed the door on backwards compatibility yet.
More than 500 Xbox 360 games are playable on Xbox Series S and X. Last year, however, Microsoft announced the end of the program, after announcing a final wave of backward compatible titles. To the great sadness of the fans. For in the spirit of the Xbox days, the Xbox 360 represented the golden generation. Many titles released at the time are no longer available for sale. Quite paradoxically, 220 titles from the Xbox 360 store have not been adapted to run on Xbox Series. And Phil Spencer said at Gamescom that he couldn’t stop thinking about it.
“There is a list of 220 games that are not backwards compatible. I have this list and it’s stapled in my mind. How can we make sure they are still playable?” said the president of the Xbox division.
No promises yet. However, it seems clear that the closure of the Xbox 360 store, scheduled for 2024, may play a role in the resumption of the backward compatibility program. Microsoft seems in any case well aware of the issues, even if the interest in retrogaming concerns only a small part of its clientele.
