Rumor: Black Ops coming to Xbox One Backwards Compatibility This Month

4.5
Fans have been begging for it for a long time and it's finally happening. Microsoft and Activision have finally answered fan prayers and made Call of Duty: Black Ops backwards compatible.

It still hasn't been officially announced, but reports are coming in all over the net and we at GameZone can confirm it as well, Call of Duty: Black Ops is joining the ranks of backwards compatible games on Xbox One. The game is being advertised as playable on Xbox One on the Xbox 360 dashboard. Microsoft's Director of Program Management, Mike Ybarra, also posted a cryptic tweet saying "~13.5 hours. #Xbox", something that is possibly hinting that the official backwards compatibility announcement is coming in about 13.5 hours after the point of him tweeting it.

Who knows, maybe this will be enough to get angry fans to stop down voting the Call of Duty: Infinite Warfare trailer.

Xbox owners should also expect that bigger Xbox 360 games, those who required two disks, to become backwards compatible as well since Microsoft has figured out how to make the dual disk games work on the Xbox One.

coolbunny1234 This is a poor choice by Microsoft. Give the people what we want! (MW)
OMG! your such a fanboy. BLOPS II has more players on a daily basis than MW and MW2.

MW was great, but MOVE ON. MW2 was so unbalanced that it was a joke.


MW2 was the best quickscoping game there was lol


Get rid of these modern warefares, WaW is where its at.

This is INCREDIBLE news, assuming the game runs as well as it did on 360. Halo Reach was an utter disappointment in terms of frame rates and is, as far as I know, one of the only "serious" games available for backwards compatibility. I would hate to see the same thing happen to a game like Black Ops.

It better be. I've been hyped for this since it was supposedly announced! M$ lied to us all w/ BO1.

I hope the rumors are true and it does come to back words compatibility soon. Black Ops is the one game that I've really been wanting the back words compatibility for.
