The Xbox team says you
will be able to "start playing these games today if you own them on disc or digitally, and the vast majority can be purchased digitally by new players in the Microsoft Store starting later today."
"Every backward compatible title added today will experience improved visual quality with Auto HDR on supported displays, which automatically adds HDR enhancements on Xbox Series X|S."
"Original Xbox games will experience a resolution increase on all Xbox Series X|S
and Xbox One consoles on supported displays - 4x resolution increase on Xbox Series X and Xbox One X, 3x resolution increase on Xbox Series S, 2x resolution increase on Xbox One S and Xbox One."
According to Xbox compatibility program lead Peggy Lo, this will mark the final batch of
backwards compatible titles to be released, with Lo explaining that the team has "reached the limit of our ability to bring new games to the catalog from the past due to licensing, legal and technical constraints".
