It is your personal history of epic stories and treasured memories from the past. And as players, we don\u2019t want to leave our gaming legacy behind even as technology continues to evolve and advance. We expect our library of games to move forward with us and to be able to play them in entirely new ways.<\/p>\n<p>Rolling out today, XBOX Backward Compatibility on PC launches in\u00a0early release, starting with four classic original XBOX games, now playable on PC and handhelds for the first time ever. This marks the beginning of a broader effort to preserve XBOX games from the past and bring them to PC over time. And we are not just enabling you to play them on PC. We are also adding new features to make your gaming experience better than ever.<\/p>\n<p>Players can jump into the following games on PC and supported handheld devices beginning today in supported regions:\u00a0<\/p>\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><em><a href=\"https:\/\/www.xbox.com\/en-us\/games\/store\/blinx-the-time-sweeper\/brg51c5mwfsg\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">BLiNX: The Time Sweeper<\/a>\u00a0<\/em><\/li>\n<li><em><a href=\"https:\/\/www.xbox.com\/en-us\/games\/store\/conker-live-and-reloaded\/bvfb8cbs75r6\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Conker: Live and Reloaded<\/a>\u00a0<\/em><\/li>\n<li><em><a href=\"https:\/\/www.xbox.com\/en-us\/games\/store\/crimson-skies-high-road-to-revenge\/c4b8xr1lcxr5\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Crimson Skies\u00ae: High Road to Revenge<\/a>\u00a0<\/em><\/li>\n<li><em><a href=\"https:\/\/www.xbox.com\/en-us\/games\/store\/fuzion-frenzy\/c2p985h1h42h\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Fuzion Frenzy\u00ae<\/a>\u00a0<\/em><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Each of these games is now available for purchase on PC and also included with all XBOX Game Pass plans. If you already own a digital license for these games on console, that license now carries over to your PC or handheld. Through the power of XBOX Play Anywhere and XBOX Cloud Gaming,\u00a0you can now play these classic games from the past on your XBOX console, cloud, PC and handheld.<\/p>\n<figure data-wp-context='{\"imageId\":\"6a617868a1038\"}' data-wp-interactive=\"core\/image\" data-wp-key=\"6a617868a1038\" class=\"wp-block-image size-full wp-lightbox-container\"><img loading=\"lazy\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1080\" data-wp-class--hide=\"state.isContentHidden\" data-wp-class--show=\"state.isContentVisible\" data-wp-init=\"callbacks.setButtonStyles\" data-wp-on--click=\"actions.showLightbox\" data-wp-on--load=\"callbacks.setButtonStyles\" data-wp-on-window--resize=\"callbacks.setButtonStyles\" src=\"https:\/\/xboxwire.thesourcemediaassets.com\/sites\/2\/2026\/07\/ROG-Crimson-Skies-3-1-JPG-0135b0d2e2c601739446.jpg\" alt=\"XBOX ROG Ally Asset\" class=\"wp-image-224030\" srcset=\"https:\/\/xboxwire.thesourcemediaassets.com\/sites\/2\/2026\/07\/ROG-Crimson-Skies-3-1-JPG-0135b0d2e2c601739446.jpg 1920w, https:\/\/xboxwire.thesourcemediaassets.com\/sites\/2\/2026\/07\/ROG-Crimson-Skies-3-1-JPG-0135b0d2e2c601739446-768x432.jpg 768w, https:\/\/xboxwire.thesourcemediaassets.com\/sites\/2\/2026\/07\/ROG-Crimson-Skies-3-1-JPG-0135b0d2e2c601739446-1024x576.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/xboxwire.thesourcemediaassets.com\/sites\/2\/2026\/07\/ROG-Crimson-Skies-3-1-JPG-0135b0d2e2c601739446-1536x864.jpg 1536w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1920px) 100vw, 1920px\"><button class=\"lightbox-trigger\" type=\"button\" aria-haspopup=\"dialog\" aria-label=\"Enlarge\" data-wp-init=\"callbacks.initTriggerButton\" data-wp-on--click=\"actions.showLightbox\" data-wp-style--right=\"state.imageButtonRight\" data-wp-style--top=\"state.imageButtonTop\"><br \/>\n\t\t\t<svg xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" width=\"12\" height=\"12\" fill=\"none\" viewbox=\"0 0 12 12\">\n\t\t\t\t<path fill=\"#fff\" d=\"M2 0a2 2 0 0 0-2 2v2h1.5V2a.5.5 0 0 1 .5-.5h2V0H2Zm2 10.5H2a.5.5 0 0 1-.5-.5V8H0v2a2 2 0 0 0 2 2h2v-1.5ZM8 12v-1.5h2a.5.5 0 0 0 .5-.5V8H12v2a2 2 0 0 1-2 2H8Zm2-12a2 2 0 0 1 2 2v2h-1.5V2a.5.5 0 0 0-.5-.5H8V0h2Z\"><\/path>\n\t\t\t<\/svg><br \/>\n\t\t<\/button><\/figure>\n<p>In addition to making these games available on PC for the first time ever, we\u2019ve added new features to enhance the experience on PC\u00a0while preserving the original gameplay. Players can customize graphics settings, including up to 4x resolution upscaling,\u00a0VSync\u00a0support, Fullscreen and Windowed display modes, anisotropic filtering, enhanced anti-aliasing, and more. These games also include customizable language and audio settings.<\/p>\n<p>We plan to add even more features to XBOX Backward Compatibility games in the future. I\u2019m excited to share that later this year we will be bringing one of the top fan-requested features to select original XBOX games on both console and PC: Achievements. The first four games releasing in preview today will be updated to include Achievements in the coming months.<\/p>\n<p>Getting started is simple. If your PC or handheld meets the minimum system requirements below, you\u2019ll be able\u00a0to access backward compatible titles through the XBOX on PC app.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><strong>Minimum
