More Xbox 360 games should look crisp on an Xbox One X in the future.

When the Xbox One X launched, Microsoft surprised consumers by announcing that certain Xbox 360 games would be enhanced for the console. Experiences like Fallout 3 and Halo 3 look absolutely stunning on a 4K display due to the increase in resolution. However, many thought that the company wouldn't upgrade other Xbox 360 games because it was only used to market the console at launch.

Luckily, that doesn't appear to be the case at all. Albert Penello, the head of Marketing for Xbox Consoles, confirmed that more Xbox One X Enhanced Xbox 360 games are coming soon. It's unclear which titles will make the cut or when customers should expect them.

  • Would be great to see Gears of War 2 in 4K, just like they did with Gears 3!
  • I was a great fan of the old Warhammer Battle March, despite the clunky interface. It's biggest issue imo was the graphics; everything was so tiny and at a low resolution... I'd love to give it a go at a higher resolution, but with such an old game, that's highly unlikely to happen...
  • Gears 2!
