Microsoft has put together a list of Xbox 360 games that are likely to be gone from the Store on your old console very soon. A maneuver that could deprive players of certain titles, not available at this stage in the Xbox One and Xbox Series S stores | X
Microsoft is about to remove a selection of games, along with their add-ons and content, from its Xbox 360 store. In the game. As specified by Windows Central, some of these titles are not referenced in the stores of the current Microsoft consoles, the Xbox Series S | X, or even in the Xbox One Store. Therefore, it is possible that part of this selection is outright withdrawn from sale with no other alternative for players. And, in this case, the deletion desired by Microsoft will occur very soon.
«Starting February 7, 2023, a limited number of games, expansions, and in-game content will no longer be available for purchase in certain markets through the Xbox 360 Store.“Explains Microsoft in a press release shared with the specialized Gematsu site. “These titles will no longer be purchasable from the Xbox 360 store, but [les jeux de cette sélection] currently available in Xbox One stores and Xbox Series X|S will continue to be available for purchasesays the signature.
What games in question in France?
As Microsoft also indicates, it will still be possible to launch these games physically on an Xbox 360 if you have a disc. You can also download them whenever you want if you had previously purchased them on the console. For backward compatible titles (not the case for all), the Redmond giant ensures that it will also continue to be possible to play it on recent Xboxes… as long as you already have a physical or digital copy.
If you’re quick, finally keep in mind that it’s still possible to buy the games Microsoft plans to remove from the Xbox 360 Store. You’ll just have to pay before February 7th.
