Several Xbox 360 titles are now available to play on Xbox One.
The announcement, which was made on Major Nelson's blog earlier this morning, revealed that 10 new titles are now available. These titles range from major retail releases such as The Witcher 2: Assassins of Kings to Xbox Live Arcade cult hits like Space Giraffe.
So yes, you can finally see J Allard's wonderful head on your Xbox One. All praise Jeff Minter.
It's also worth noting that The Witcher 2: Assassin's of Kings is currently free to download until February 5th, so there's no reason why you shouldn't check out Geralt's adventure before he went on a wild hunt.
Here's the full list of titles:
- Aegis Wing
- Age of Booty
- Counter-Strike: GO
- Jeremy McGrath's Offroad Arcade
- Sam & Max Save the World
- Skullgirls
- Small Arms
- Soulcalibur
- Space Giraffe
- The Witcher 2: Assassins of Kings
Did one of the games you were anticipating finally make the list, or are you still bummed that we can't play Uno on Xbox One yet?

Well I've not played The Witcher 2 (played 1 but 2 wouldn't work on PC) yet "own" it from when it was previously free with Games with Gold so I'll play that. Other than that only thing of interest is Space Giraffe and that's only because I haven't really played a Minter game for a while. I'm sure the internet is going to lose their sh!t over this as the updates are getting smaller and smaller each month.
Downloaded Witcher onto my One earlier. Just found at my brothers house and thought I'd download it for him since he's away just now. The game is no longer appearing on the store on the 360, and when I try to redeem it on Xbox.com it says it isn't available in this region (United Kingdom). Hopefully it's a glitch, it does say on Major Nelson's blog that the UK was a region the game was available in.
@Justin5267 The Witcher 2 is also free.
Witcher 2!
Meh nothin for me this month. But that's okay, I have an absurd amount of games to play
@A_BabyRed_Yoshi Same here Red, same here. Need more time cause I have a lot of games I'd like to play.
Lies...I own Small Arms and it's not in my ready to install list
@EternalDragonX Try restarting you console or they even say scroll over to the list and sit and wait for it to pull through all the titles.
The Witcher 2 for free?!! Wow! Frickin awesome!
@flameboy84
Can I make a suggestion? I think giving a free copy of The Witcher 2 away should get it's own article here at PX just to make sure people don't miss the news if they don't read this article.
Plus, it's a free game. And a good one! That doesn't happen often, especially game on par with The Witcher. Just an idea.
@jongred Off topic here, but do you have Cakewalk Sonar or any other music editing studio. I know you're a singer so I was just curious to know what you'd recommend. I'm about to start making my own music
Awesome. Though I have played Witcher 2 a couple of times already when I am ready to boot it up again I will at least have the option now.
Got some fighting games on there. It's a start.
We're well on our way, but still so far to go.
@KelticDevil A good shout, sir. We'll see what we can do.
@SuperKMx
I get a good idea once a year. Guess I used it up in Jan. already. Lol.
@Justin5267
Good call on Aegis Wing. I remember when it came out many yrs. ago & was very surprised at how good it was for a free game.
@A_BabyRed_Yoshi
Great initiative, glad to hear that you will start recording your music!
I don't have much experience with that program personally, I'm afraid, all I've used is Audacity for personal use.
I do however have a friend who is really into music and editing. We used to have a duo group he and I, he had the guitar, brains, brawn and creativity and I just tried to sing He spent much more time and developed his talents way more than I did so we "disbanded" a couple of years ago.
Anyway, I could check with him to see what he is using for his home studio and ask if he knows anything about Cakewalk Sonar.
I apologize for the wall of text(that didn't even answer your question) and wish you the best of luck!
I'm really hoping Hitman HD Pack, Blood Money and Absolution make it to Xbox One sometime then I'd have the complete collection, bar Codename 47.
I think Left 4 Dead 2 should make it to Xbox One too I'd imagine a lot of people would go back to playing that.
