Xbox One Backward Compatibility news: 'RAGE,' 'Killer is Dead,' and 'Shred Nebula' added to the list of backward compatible games

The Xbox One Backward Compatibility list has grown again with three games added to it. Larry Hryb, Xbox Live director of Programming and community manager recently announced on Twitter that "RAGE," "Killer is Dead," and "Shred Nebula" are added to the list.

First on the list is a 2011 game called "RAGE," developed by id Software and published by Bethesda Softworks. It is a post-apocalyptic first-person shooter video game that dwells on the aftermath when asteroid 99942 Apophis hit the Earth. Players will also have access to vehicles, which they upgrade and use to win races. They can also use it to explore the world, as well as driving from one mission to another. Fans described the game as a combination of "Fallout," "Borderlands," and "Mad Max 2." It is currently priced at $15.99 on the Microsoft Store.

The second game is called "Killer is Dead," an action video game developed by Grasshopper Manufacture that was released back in 2013 and costs $19.99. Players will take the role of a cyborg named Mondo Zappa, who was tasked by an execution firm to kill the world's dangerous criminals and assassins. Mondo carries a katana-like sword and uses it with his right arm. His left cybernetic arm can be converted into many weapons that he wishes to use, such as guns and drills.

Last for the latest addition is the 2008 "Shred Nebula" developed by Crunch Time Games. The arcade multi-directional shooter video game is similar to "Asteroids" and "Subspace." Its retail value on the Microsoft Store is $4.99. Players will then have to fight its way through the 40 stages offered by the game, with different obstacles and traps. It has a single-player campaign mode and a multiplayer mode that can be enjoyed by up to eight online players. An offline multiplayer mode is also available, but it can only accommodate up to two players.

A little over a week ago, Xbox added "The Orange Box," "Joe Danger 2: The Movie," and "Galaga Legions" to the list of backward compatible games. Xbox fans can check out the complete list of the games available on the Backward Compatibility list on Hryb's blog.
