Mass Effect 2 and Mass Effect 3 now backwards compatible on Xbox One

4.5
Microsoft and EA have announced that both Mass Effect 2 and Mass Effect 3 have joined the list of Xbox 360 backwards compatible games.

This means you’ll be able to insert the Xbox 360 disc into your Xbox One and have the game download the full install. You’ll need the disc to play, unless you own the games digitally. In which case, you’ll find them under the ‘Ready-to-Install’ section on Xbox One.

You won’t even need to have the full set of discs, just the first one for each game.

If you don’t want to fumble around with discs, and don’t own either of them digitally, EA also announced that both games have been added to the EA Access vault. You can download and play them from the EA Access hub for as long as your subscription lasts.

This means the entire trilogy is available on PC and Xbox One, as part of EA and Origin Access, including all DLC.

Can't wait to play Mass Effect 3 again, spent so much time playing that with friends. Might have to persuade them to get it again.

I have never played Mass Effect so I won't know if this is a good thing or not, I may try it for something to do when I'm bored of mwr.

one of the best series i've ever played and waiting on the new one. I may go back and play them all to get a refresher although I think the new one is set in a whole new universe.

Mass Effect 3 was eh, but mass effect 2 was alright. I'm sure some die hard mass effect fans are happy out there. That's pretty cool they're added to the vault. I got a one month code for EA Access that came with BF1

I enjoyed Mass Effect 2 on the Xbox 360 when I had that console at the time. Now Mass Effect 3 is on the Xbox One.


Neat.
