More titles are rumored to join the ever-growing list of games that can be played on Microsoft's third-generation console as part of the Xbox One backwards compatibility feature.

Speculations about the inclusion of several games developed by EA emerged after online retail giant Amazon reportedly leaked a list of titles which will soon become backward-compatible with Xbox One.

The list that was spotted by Segment Next includes several racing simulation games such as "Need for Speed: Hot Pursuit," which was released by EA in 2010, and "Burnout Revenge," which came out with an Xbox 360 edition in 2006.

EA's sandbox skateboarding video game "Skate 2" is also rumored to be part of the next batch of backward-compatible games for Xbox One. The game was released in 2009. This may not come out as a surprise, since its sequel "Skate 3" is already offered in the backwards compatibility program.

Another sports simulation game is expected to join the program after "Fight Night Round 4" made it to the list. The game was released on the Xbox 360 in 2009. But those who prefer to enjoy classic action role-playing games can wait for the release of 2011's "Dragon Age II" and 2014's "Fable Anniversary" alongside the other rumored games that will soon be played on the Xbox One.

But perhaps the most likely video game to be added that was mentioned on Amazon's leaked list is the 2010 sandbox third-person shooter game "Crackdown 2," since rumors about the development of its sequel, "Crackdown 3," emerged online. This could entice players to look forward to the sequel's release.

If the leaked information turns out to be true, these games will be added to the backwards compatibility program on June 14.

Since the Xbox One backwards compatibility program began in November 2015, a lot of major video game titles have been offered for Xbox fans. They include games like Ubisoft's "Assassin's Creed," 2K Games' "Borderlands," and Microsoft's "Halo Wars."
