Microsoft continues to expand the list of Xbox 360 games that are backward compatible with the Xbox One today, as eight additional titles have been added to the list.
Even though the list is always expanding at a rapid pace, eight new games is still a lot, and there are some big titles in today's addition. Last week's addition of five games saw a major milestone for the company, as there are now over 200 Xbox 360 games that can be played on the Xbox One.
Here are the new games that were added today:
Two deadly enemies. One blood bond. No mercy. Fight with Alysa and Jeremy against hordes of enemies. Carnage for two: play solo or with a friend! The hack'n'slay offers single and multiplayer modes that allow you to play solo or with another player at any time. Co-op mode opens up a range of different tactical combat options: capture enemies with the vampire grip and drink their blood to increase your strength. Share your blood with your fellow player and support them.
Here we are, it’s impulse buy time. You already know how awesome "Comic Jumper" is going to be from that sweet demo, but maybe you need more. How about a free premium dashboard theme? Free gamerpics? Free avatar accessories? Yes. Tons of unlockables and bonuses? How about a few new "Splosion Man" levels for good measure? "Comic Jumper" comes from Twisted Pixel Games, creators of the award-winning "Splosion Man" and "The Maw".
