Xbox Series backwards compatibility: What are the Xbox backwards compatibility improvements on Xbox Serial X and Xbox Series Southward?

Also as the to a higher place lists of supported Xbox I and original Xbox games, the Xbox Series consoles too offers backwards compatibility to Xbox One games and peripherals (including the Xbox Elite Controller and Xbox Adaptive Controller) in what Microsoft describes as "our almost powerful and compatible console ever".

In a blog post in July 2020, Microsoft said: "Information technology'south our intent for all Xbox Ane games that do not require Kinect to play on Xbox Series 10 at the launch of the panel."

Backwards compatible supported games on Xbox Series will benefit from several arrangement-wide features:

Backwards compatible games will run natively on Xbox Serial X hardware, offering potentially college framerates and resolutions, plus "pregnant reductions" in load times using the SSD. In early Digital Foundry tests, it offers "up to double the operation in the almost demanding games".
"Select titles" can have framerate doubled, going from 30fps to 60fps, or 60fps to 120fps.
HDR volition be supported beyond backwards uniform games thanks to a "reconstruction technique", even going dorsum to original Xbox and Xbox 360 games.
All titles volition support Quick Resume, a system-wide feature which allows y'all to stop progress of multiple games and proceed playing them after.
Xbox Series S will offering Xbox One S-level backwards compatibility, whereas the Xbox Series 10 will offering Xbox One X-level backwards compatibility. In a nutshell, this means X will run upward to 4K, whereas the Southward will sew to 1440p - simply like other Xbox Serial games.
Xbox Series Due south volition besides innovate "improved texture filtering, higher and more consistent frame rates, faster load times and Auto HDR", according to Microsoft.

Besides as wide backwards compatibility support for Xbox One games, select Xbox One games will besides run across specific Xbox Series versions for free as part of the Xbox Smart Commitment system.

In November 2021, as part of Xbox's 20th anniversary celebrations, over 70 new titles were added from the original Xbox and Xbox 360. These were confirmed to exist the concluding backwards compatible games to be introduced on afterward Xbox consoles "due to licensing, legal and technical constraints".

Xbox One backwards compatibility: How well do Xbox 360 games run on Xbox One?

The experience varies from game to game. Co-ordinate to Digital Foundry's report, all titles receive some baseline improvements - such every bit the elimination of screen tear "completely on every championship" - through to whatever disc access operations disposed to "have less of an impact on functioning", meaning Mass Effect's elevator load times and Fallout 3'due south hitches are reduced.

However, while less demanding games such as Complect and N+ perform flawlessly, the more CPU-heavy titles practise struggle, with Halo: Reach and Gears of State of war: Judgement singled out equally games that suffer in the emulation process.

In terms of features, Xbox 360 backwards compatibility on Xbox I supports:

Digital and disc-based games at no additional cost
Support for existing saves (through the Cloud), DLC, Achievement progress, and the original dashboard
Multiplayer between those playing on Xbox 360 and Xbox One
Select Xbox One system features, including Game DVR, Windows 10 streaming and screenshots

Many Xbox 360 games are as well currently available on Microsoft's Netflix-mode Xbox Game Pass subscription service.
