The Game Awards -gaalassa Microsoft paljasti seuraavan sukupolven konsolinsa nimen ja ulkonäön. Nyt Xbox-pomo Phil Spencer on kertonut Game Spotille, miten se Xbox Series X:n odotettu ja mainostettu taaksepäin yhteensopivuus toimiikaan. Spencer kertoo testailleensa itse ominaisuutta.
"We wanted to make sure we had that, day one, we could deliver on the compatibility promise, and so I've been playing quite a few [360] games on my [Series X] and Xbox One games on the [Series X] and that's just to ensure that we can be there day one."
Xbox partner director of program management Jason Ronald lisäsi tähän, että on tärkeää voida kuljettaa mukana koko Xboxin pitkälle ulottuvaa historiaa palveluiden ohella.
"We have thousands of games that run on Xbox One today. We want those games to be able to come forward with you but we also want your services to come with you. We want your gaming legacy to come with you, whether that's your Gamerscore, whether that's your friends list, all your Achievements, your game saves, all of that should come forward so there are no barriers for you as you think about moving forward."
Games Radar tietää kertoa, että taaksepäin yhteensopivuus koskee paitsi Xbox Onen pelejä, myös Xbox 360 -konsolin ja alkuperäisen Xboxin pelejä.
