No doubt there is good news for Xbox fans who have followed the brand since its launch in 2001, as Microsoft announced the new Xbox Original games that will come to Xbox One via backwards compatibility, and there are many surprises.
Recently, we informed you about a list of leaks that included 4 games: The Elder Scrolls III: Morrowind, Destroy All Humans!, MX Unleashed and Full Spectrum Warrior. However, the best news was announced this afternoon, when Microsoft revealed that the original titles of Star Wars: Battlefront, among others in the franchise, will arrive on Xbox One during this month. According to the company, they worked with Disney to make the licenses available again.
