Red Dead Redemption is now backward compatible on Xbox One, Plus More

4.5
Surprise! Red Dead Redemption is backward compatible on Xbox One now. And guess what? Halo Wars, Left 4 Dead and Castlevania: Symphony of the Night are on the way too it seems, and it appears Tekken Tag Tournament 2 is also playable.

According to Xboxyen, the Rockstar Games western is now able to be played on Xbox One; however, the site notes their disc isn’t working with the feature just yet – only the digital version of the game. So, it may just be a matter of time before the Xbox 360 disc is recognized.

Venture Beat was playing it earlier on their Xbox One, and confirmed it was only working with the Games on Demand version of the game.

The game also isn’t showing up in “My Games & Apps” on the Xbox One dashboard for those who own it yet, but Venture Beat has a request for comment in with Microsoft now.

If you follow the instructions VB has lined out, you should get it to work, but the site notes it might not work for everyone.

As for the other titles, Xbox One user Rocko Howard posted a video of himself playing Tekken Tag Tournament 2 earlier today through his Excitehype YouTube channel

He also posted images of the RDR listing, Halo Wars, Left 4 Dead, Tekken Tag Tournament 2 and Castlevania: Symphony of the Night on Twitter. Note that some are listed as Games on Demand versions.

Halo Wars still listed on the Xbox Feedback site as “in progress” along with other titles in the works.

HaloPosted:

_Behr_ The disc isn't working because the game isn't actually backwards compatible yet. They haven't even announced it becoming backwards compatible.


That makes sense, hopefully they announce it soon and include Halo Wars in this.

This is awesome, I remember having so much fun on Red Dead Redemption. I might have to pick it up again to join in on all the fun.

This game was good when I played it for the good month that I did. It got boring eventually just like GTA got boring over time.

I loved thi game and I am definitely going to play this

IGNPosted:

I just called xbox support about the code of conduct issue and they said anyone who is playing the game early will be banned for "pirating" and they suggest not to play the game until its released to risk not getting banned. I just thought i would let everyone know the risk they are taking if they play the game at the moment.

Wish i still had a One. Would be playing Halo Wars around the clock.

Also doing this is a violation of the Code of Conduct so there is a chance you will be caught by doing this.
