Earlier this year, Microsoft announced that Halo 3, Halo 3: ODST, Halo 4, and Halo: CE Anniversary are coming to Xbox One through backwards compatibility. Yes, you can play those games on the Xbox One now if you The Master Chief Collection – which includes Halo: CE Anniversary, a Halo 2 remaster, Halo 3, Halo 3: ODST and Halo 4 all running at 60 frames per second. But there are some out ther that way to play the games in true glory of the Xbox 360.
In the latest Halo weekly update, developer 343 gave an update on how it’s coming along, starting off with, “Good news: back-compat is still a thing!”
Not only are all of those Halo games coming to Xbox One via backwards compatibility, but all the map packs are, too. The only issue is that the Noble Map Pack for Halo: Reach is not free as it should be. 343 is working with the Xbox Store team to fix this.
However, there is still no word on when the games will actually be available.
In other Halo news, 343 is working on a 4K update for Halo 5: Guardians on Xbox One X. Microsoft’s super-powered console launches in November.
