Lost Odyssey is now Xbox One backwards compatible

4.4
Lost Odyssey, a fan-favorite RPG from the creator of Final Fantasy, is now Xbox One backwards compatible.

Microsoft had made great strides in providing backwards compatibility for classic games lately, and today is no exception. Now JRPG fans can get excited to see a unique gem reach modern consoles – Lost Odyssey, the 2008 game designed by Final Fantasy creator Hironobu Sakaguchi.

Lost Odyssey follows Kaim, an amnesiac immortal trying to regain his memories while combating threats generated by a worldwide magical-industrial revolution. At the time, the game was recognized for blending traditional turn-based combat systems with a visual novel narrative design. While the end result was mixed, Lost Odyssey still gained popular acclaim for its writing and emotionally-charged storytelling.

Microsoft also introduced Toy Story 3 and and Guwange as backwards compatible today, but I suspect Lost Odyssey is the game that will really hit everyone’s nostalgia button today.

They make trash games backwards compatible and wonder why they don't make a profit off it

Maj There basically wasting time, why add games that nobody knows / likes? Add the good games first then the bad ones...


Lost Odyssey is one of the best games I've ever played... The amount of detail they put into this games story is just amazing. The battle system is also very fun once you get use to it.

Big ups to Microsoft for finally adding decent games to back compat, the last few drops have been better than the overall of all previous games.
