The list of games supporting the Xbox One Backward Compatibility program continues to grow as four new titles were recently added. However, one of these games will not be available for players from the United States while two of them are call-backs to the 1990s.
Xbox's Larry Hryb, who is also known as Major Nelson, revealed the four games via Twitter. All four of these games were originally launched on the Xbox 360 or on Xbox Live Arcade and now, they can be played on an Xbox One.
The first game confirmed is Telltale Games' "Jurassic Park: The Game." Like many of the company's games, this is another point-and-click adventure similar to their "The Walking Dead" games and the recently launched "Batman" series. This game takes place during the events of the 1993 "Jurassic Park" film.
"Dragon's Lair" was also added to the list. The game was originally released for arcades back in 1983, and it featured animation directed by Don Bluth. The game is one of the first classic point-and-click adventure games that utilized film-like animation and quick-time events.
The third game added is "Battlestation: Midway," one which allows players to control an entire fleet and individual ships during World War II, specifically in battles that took place in the Pacific Ocean. A sequel was also released for the Xbox 360 in 2009.
Gamespot reveals that the fourth game, "Tour de France 2011," is not available for players in the United States. This is a cycling game developed by Cyanide that was not ported to the U.S.
For players that already own these games, they will find them already in their Xbox One games library. If not, they can be purchased on the Xbox One store for a much lower price than what they were originally sold for. "Dragon's Lair" is listed for $10 and both "Battlestations: Midway" and "Jurassic Park: The Game" are priced at $20.
