There are also some Xbox 360 games that are receiving enhancements for the Xbox One X, which was also announced during Inside Xbox today. The following games will be enhanced:

All of the Xbox One X enhancements that were announced today will also be available today.
Indeed, 500 Xbox and Xbox 360 games that are playable on the Xbox One family of consoles is quite the milestone, being that the program was introduced in June of 2015, which was almost three years ago. Microsoft has made great strides toward the idea of one Xbox where you can play all of the games you"ve purchased throughout the console"s generations.
