On Friday, software giant Microsoft has released a new list of popular Xbox 360 games that can now be played on Xbox One through the backwards compatibility feature. Some of the popular games featured are "Halo: Reach," "Fable 3," and "Deus Ex: Human Revolution," among others, a report from iDigital Times said.

Aside from the aforementioned games, the Redmund-based company has also announced that the company recorded more than 9 million hours of playtime for Xbox 360 games via Xbox One. This is due to the backwards compatibility support that was announced back in November. The company also cited several popular backward-compatibility games, namely: "Fallout 3," "Gears of Wars 3," "Just Cause 2," "Assassin's Creed II," and "Dirt 3."
It can be recalled that Microsoft introduced the backwards compatibility support back in November with only 104 Xbox 360 games in the initial lineup. Since the company announced the backwards compatibility feature, it progressively released new games to the lineup. It was said that avid fans and console owners are expecting more games to be announced next year.
"Microsoft reiterates its promise to work with developers for new additions to the program on a regular basis, but doesn't say when Xbox One owners can expect the next batch of games to arrive for the Xbox One Backwards Compatibility program. The company has to work with publishers to get their permission to introduce their titles into the program. Presumably, there's some extensive testing involved before games are made available for the program too, but Microsoft hasn't confirmed that," Gotta Mobile said.
