Next Xbox One Backwards Compatibility Game Arrives

2013's Call of Duty: Ghosts has arrived.

28 Comments

The Xbox One's backwards compatibility library grows again today with one more game. As announced by Major Nelson, today's addition to the catalog is Infinity Ward's Call of Duty: Ghosts. If you already own Ghosts on Xbox 360, it should show up automagically in your Xbox One library. Alternatively, you can purchase it through the Xbox Store.

Ghosts is the sixth Call of Duty Xbox 360 game in the backwards compatibility lineup; the others include Call of Duty 2, Call of Duty 3, Black Ops, Black Ops II, and World at War.

Microsoft has now added six games to the Xbox One's backwards compatibility catalog this week, following the five--including Assassin's Creed: Brotherhood--that came out earlier this week.

In other backwards compatibility news, Microsoft announced at E3 that Original Xbox games are coming to the catalog later this year. However, the lineup of titles may not be as extensive.

Update: We have been reminded that Call of Duty: Ghosts is already available on Xbox One. But now the Xbox 360 edition can be played on Xbox One through backwards compatibility.

This is one of those games that should have been back compat the moment back compat became available. IMHO there should be no delays adding a game to back compat with anything that has been released on Xbone since back compat was enabled. There's really no excuse.

Still no Modern Warfare games : /

Oh it's all right... instead of MW we get probably the most unloved/unwanted Call of Duty, that's already on the XBOne. great!

Most of my friends still playing xbox 360 and most of them play ghost, so instead of switching consoles I can just pop the disc in to my xbox one and bang!

I don't understand why this would be made to be back compatible when a Xbox one version exists.

Games like this get my hopes up for a possibility of games that are also sold on xbox one. I want re 5 and 6 to become backwards compatible so i won't have to buy them again and play with my friend.

Why?... there's already an xbox one version. That seems pretty stupid, especially since the one version can be bought for like, $7 on ebay.

I hated Ghost, but this is good news. Ghost is also on Xbox One and if you owned it on 360 they are at least letting you play it on Xbox One without making you buy the Xbox One version.
