The backwards compatible features was launched November 12, 2015 for Xbox One console. Microsoft had to come with a plan to compete against its counter part console PlayStation 4. Since the launch of PS4, Xbox One was overshadowed with PlayStation 4. This was mainly due to lack of exclusives on Xbox One and few little features.
Microsoft in an attempt to gain traction in consumer electronics market, released backward compatible feature. Xbox Backwards Compatibility is currently competing directly with PS Now services and hence Microsoft is continuously increasing the number of titles in this list to make it even better.
Xbox One Backwards Compatibility was started to bring the original Xbox and Xbox 360 titles to Xbox One and the list has been growing ever since the service started. It now covers almost more than 1000 games that support backwards compatible feature.
Microsoft is also planning to bring Game Pass services to PC platform. Currently, only Microsoft exclusive games can be accessed via Game Pass and third party games remain restricted to play on PC.
