"Blue Dragon" has recently been added to the list of Xbox 360 games now playable on Xbox One through the Xbox One Backward Compatibility feature. Following its addition, Xbox head Phil Spencer announced that other top fan requested games are going to be added soon.
"Thanks, BC [Backwards Compatibility] team just sent me their planned November list, looks to be a great BC month, landing some of top fan requests," he explained via Twitter.
Several of the top comments on his post are requesting for the "Metal Gear Solid HD Collection," which contains "Metal Gear Solid 2: Sons of Liberty," "Metal Gear Solid 3: Snake Eater," and "Metal Gear Solid: Peace Walker." Spencer did not confirm or deny if the game was being considered this November.
Other top requests include "Tales of Vesperia," the "Mass Effect" games, as well as the first two "Dragon Age" games. It is noted that there is a new "Mass Effect" game coming out, "Mass Effect: Andromeda," and a new "Dragon Age" has been teased but not yet announced.
According to IGN, one of the top requests was for backward compatibility with the original Xbox. This would come as a big surprise for fans given that Nov. 15 is also the fifteenth anniversary of the original Xbox. However, Spencer did respond to this rumor and immediately shot it down.
Spencer explained that they have not yet ruled out the possibility of including backward compatibility with the original Xbox, but he did confirm that they are not yet working on this feature. He explained he would like to find the time to do it, indicating the team is primarily focused on backward compatibility with Xbox 360 games and the upcoming launch of the Xbox One S and the Xbox Scorpio.
No official news about the next batch of backward compatible games has been released thus far.
