Jurassic Park: The Game joins the Xbox One’s backwards compatibility list ↑
One of the most popular features of Microsoft’s Xbox One console is undoubtedly backwards compatibility, which allows players to replay their old Xbox 360 games on their Xbox One console. And since Microsoft announced the feature to a shocked crowd back at the 2015 E3 show, the company’s list of backward compatible games has been growing, and it now includes classics like Ubisoft’s Assassin’s Creed II, amongst others. This year we’ve seen the addition of much-requested games like Call of Duty: Black Ops and Red Dead Redemption, and now Microsoft has announced that Jurassic Park: The Game can now be played on the Xbox One. Jurassic Park: The Game is one of Telltale’s episodic adventure games based on Spielberg’s legendary 1993 movie, and was fun to play despite the great number of characters players had to control in the game, and some tedious puzzles and quick time events. The game clearly wasn’t up to the standard of The Walking Dead which is arguably Telltale Games finest adventure to date, but can still provide good entertainment to fans of the Jurassic Park movies. Jurassic Park: The Game wasn’t Telltale Game’s finest hour, but was still a decent adventure game all the same. Microsoft also announced that three other games had joined the backwards compatibility list, namely Dragon’s Lair, Battlestations Midway and Tour de France 2011, with Dragon’s Lair, which was created by well-known former Disney animator Don Bluth, being the highlight of the three. It is clear, though, that being able to replay good old games from the Xbox 360 era is a boon for most Xbox One owners, and the console’s backwards compatibility feature has certainly been a big success, with Microsoft reporting that gamers have spent more than 145 million hours playing Xbox 360 games on their Xbox One consoles to date according to company executive Aaron Greenberg. And it’s certainly great that players are spending quality time playing the old classics on their Xbox One, and hopefully Microsoft’s backwards compatibility list will keep growing to add more great Xbox 360 games in the future. Note: Those who own Jurassic Park: The Game, Dragon’s Lair, Battlestations Midway and Tour de France 2011 on Xbox 360 will see the game show up in the Xbox One’s game library (note that Tour de France 2011 is not backwards compatible in the US). → Next: See what Lo Wang is all about in Shadow Warrior 2’s launch trailer A list of every supported Xbox game, from Alan Wake to Zuma, on Xbox One and Xbox Series.
Xbox backwards compatibility of Xbox 360 games was Microsoft's big surprise back at E3 2015, and since debuting the feature later that year, the publisher rolled out new releases on a month-by-month basis. Though Microsoft wound down its original Xbox and Xbox 360 back compatible efforts in mid-2019 in favour of
Xbox One support for Xbox Series X - which also supports a range of improvements - there was one final update in November 2021 as part of Xbox's 20th anniversary celebrations, adding another 76 games and adding additional enhancements to existing ones. While both downloadable and disc-based Xbox 360 and original Xbox games work on Xbox One and Xbox Series X, only selected games are supported on a case-by-case basis. From fan-favourite Xbox Live Arcade games to some of the biggest Xbox 360
exclusives such as Gears of War 3 and Halo: Reach, the roster represents a wide selection of some of Xbox's greatest hits. On this page:

Xbox Series backwards compatibility: What are the Xbox backwards compatibility improvements on Xbox Series X and Xbox Series S?As well as the above lists of supported Xbox One and original Xbox games, the Xbox Series consoles also offers backwards compatibility to Xbox One games and peripherals (including the Xbox Elite Controller and Xbox Adaptive Controller) in what Microsoft describes as "our most powerful and compatible console ever". In a blog post in July 2020, Microsoft said: "It's our intent for all Xbox One games that do not require Kinect to play on Xbox Series X at the launch of the console." Backwards compatible supported games on Xbox Series will benefit from several system-wide features:
As well as broad backwards compatibility support for Xbox One games, select Xbox One games will also see specific Xbox Series versions for free as part of the Xbox Smart Delivery system. In November 2021, as part of Xbox's 20th anniversary celebrations, over 70 new titles were added from the original Xbox and Xbox 360. These were confirmed to be the last backwards compatible games to be introduced on later Xbox consoles "due to licensing, legal and technical constraints". Xbox One backwards compatibility: How well do Xbox 360 games run on Xbox One?The experience varies from game to game. According to Digital Foundry's report, all titles receive some baseline improvements - such as the elimination of screen tear "completely on every title" - through to any disc access operations tending to "have less of an impact on performance", meaning Mass Effect's elevator load times and Fallout 3's hitches are reduced. However, while less demanding games such as Braid and N+ perform flawlessly, the more CPU-heavy titles do struggle, with Halo: Reach and Gears of War: Judgement singled out as games that suffer in the emulation process. In terms of features, Xbox 360 backwards compatibility on Xbox One supports:
