Xbox Adds 21 Original Games to PC Backward Compatibility
Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic and TimeSplitters 2 are among the titles now playable on Windows 11 through the program.
Xbox added 21 more original Xbox games to its PC Backward Compatibility catalog on November 12, 2026, according to screenrant.com. The lineup includes Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic and TimeSplitters 2.
The additions are available to PC players in supported countries and are based on the Xbox versions of the games rather than the original PC ports.
The Elder Scrolls III: Morrowind and Grabbed by the Ghoulies are available to Xbox Game Pass subscribers at no extra cost. Running the program on PC requires Windows 11.
Achievements for four titles
Achievements were added to Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic, Knights of the Old Republic II – The Sith Lords, BLiNX: The Time Sweeper and Conker: Live and Reloaded.
Earlier this year, Xbox brought BLiNX: The Time Sweeper, Conker: Live and Reloaded, Crimson Skies: High Road to Revenge and Fuzion Frenzy to PC through the same program. Many of the newly added games were already sold on PC through storefronts such as Steam in their original port versions.
