Last Monday, Microsoft stated its latest game titles throughout its Xbox One presentation at E3. Microsoft uncovered its Xbox One game roster for 2015 and 2016, an up-to-date controller and backwards compatibility. The company further discussed its project regarding virtual reality gaming and support as well.
Xbox gamers can still play their old games on present consoles which imply that games from the Xbox 360 can be played on Xbox One absolutely without any cost. Confirmed in Denver Post, Xbox's Head of Platform Engineering Mike Ybarra said, "We won't charge you to play the games you already own,"
Microsoft said users will not have to pay any amount to play old games. They will just have to basically download, launch the game, and play. For those who are part of the Xbox preview program, the service will be available Monday, reported in NY Daily News.
Specifically, Xbox One is developing a new controller exactly for 'Elite' gamers. The Elite controller will have interchangeable modules that augment gameplay. Some advanced features of the controller consist of trigger locks, re-mappable buttons and a removable steering pad. The Elite controller will be on sale this fall. Concurrently, hundreds of games are yet to be added each month because they should seek first for an authorization from the developers. In some way, it was presumed that Microsoft's close link with key producers will lead Skyrim to be the first in the list of programs, identified in ICXM.
By way of integrating backward compatibility to plump for games beginning Monday with 300,000 players in the preview program, Microsoft expects gamers can discard their timeworn consoles for the latest one. In a way, it is also an insult to Sony's PlayStation Plus subscription service that provides older PS3 games for $50 annually.
So far, this has been the most prevalent revelation by Microsoft at E3 and is a game changer for the Xbox One; a harsh knock to other competitors for their powerful venture in luxurious streaming firms.
