Like the 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:Nintendo DS, and Wii U stores before it, the Xbox 360 marketplace is shutting down. You'll still be able to buy backwards compatible titles from the Xbox One and Series X/S, but any games that did not get this support and are only ava🌳ilable on the 360 will require physical copies to play.
"On July 29, 2024, Xbox will ♉stop supporting the ability to purchase new games, DLC, and other entertainment content from the Xbox 360 Store on the console and the Xbox 360 Marketplace," Microsoft said. "Related to this change, the Microsoft Movie▨s & TV app will no longer function on Xbox 360, which means TV and movie content will no longer be viewable on your Xbox 360 after July 29, 2024."
If you have purchased any Xbox 360 games or DLC, they will still be available🐼 to play on the original console as well as the Xbox One and Series X/S so long as they are backwards compatible. Multiplayer will also continue to work "as long as the publisher still supports the online servers", while cloud saving will also remain intact.
As the store is closing in July 2024, you have just under a year to purchase any Xbox 360 games you want that are not available on newer hardware. If there are any favourites you want to play again or any gems you've yet to bite the bullet on buying, now's the time, because physical copies will inevitably increase in value as the market price will be dictated by scarcity. We saw this happen with DS and Wii U games once their stores closed, as the only wꦰay to buy their games now is to go through second-hand markets or collectors. The same al🐷so happened to PS3 when it moved to gift card only purchases, rendering its store practically unusable.
29 percent of Xbox 360 🦋games are backwards compatible, which means that 71 percent will no longer be available to purchase digitally. In other words, 633 games are still playable on the Xbox One and 🃏Series X/S out of 2,154. . Microsoft, however, said that it won't add any more games to its backwards compatibility system "due to licensing, legal, and technical constraints", meaning that the list of 633 games is where it ends, despite no longer being able to buy games digitally on the Xbox 360 itself starting next year.
Whether we'll see any of these titles re-released by publishers themselves or ported elsewhere remains to be seen. For instance, is ꦐavailable on Xbox 360, but not the later consoles. In 𒆙the meantime, you have 11 months to scour the store if you still have the old console lying around.
