Over 1 Billion Hours Played Using Xbox One Backward Compatibility Feature

Since its debut, the Xbox One backward compatibility feature has added over 100 games to the list ranging from Xbox to Xbox 360 games. Fully playable either digitally or on physical discs, with some receiving Xbox One enhancements such as resolution improvements and load times. Microsoft has confirmed that over 1 billion hours of games have been played using the feature.

The news comes from Xbox Wire stating:

We also reached a couple milestones recently with players having enjoyed over 4 billion hours on games released through our ID@Xbox program and nearly 1 billion hours on games in our Xbox One Backward Compatibility library.

This is an impressive feat considering that the PS4 and the Nintendo Switch cannot play previous games unless purchased on their digital store. Microsoft has continued to add new games to the feature with the latest being Sants Row 2.
