Xbox Scorpio Beats PlayStation 4 Pro Thanks To Backward Compatibility Feature

An anonymous gamer wanted to know if Red Dead Redemption is playable on the upcoming Xbox Scorpio console, which is the up and coming upgrade to the Xbox One. With this, uncovered a major piece of news about the Project Scorpio. The newest installment for the Xbox One will be featuring backward compatibility with Xbox 360 games, according to Xbox partner director of program management, Mike Ybarra, as tweeted by him on Tuesday.

Project Scorpio will be featuring full-access to your favorite Xbox 360 games

You can currently play Xbox 360 games on the Xbox One, though the list of available games is still incomplete. If Project Scorpio's backward compatibility works similarly like how it currently functions on the Xbox One, where the console will effectively boost the Xbox 360 OS and then loads in the Xbox 360 game, you will be able to play some of your favorite Xbox 360 games on the Scorpio.

Why Xbox is better than the PS4 and other consoles

The PlayStation 4 and Xbox One lacking on backward compatibility feature was a major issue for some console gamers when the new platforms were released. Right now, Microsoft is currently ahead of Sony in terms of fixing the issue by allowing gamers to play famous Xbox 360 games on the Xbox One, as well as incorporating the backward compatibility on the Xbox Scorpio. In order to play games on the PS4 from earlier PlayStations, you have to purchase a new copy of the game that is fully compatible with the latest PS4 console, which is asking way too much, according to a lot of console gamers. With that being said, Nintendo fans are also wondering if the upcoming Nintendo Switch will also be featuring backward compatibility.

Microsoft will dominate the entire gaming console industry

Reports have recently surfaced, suggesting that Microsoft has a good chance of dominating the entire gaming console industry once their much-awaited Xbox Scorpio rolls out. Further updates about the current state of the Scorpio will be unveiled as the console approaches its official release date, which is relatively sooner than later.
