Red Dead Redemption finally heads to Xbox One backwards compatibility

6 Jul 2016

Microsoft has finally confirmed that Red Dead Redemption will join the Xbox One backwards compatibility program.

Aussies should be able to play the Xbox 360 game on their current-gen consoles from this weekend.

The game was briefly playable on Xbox One back in February, but Microsoft took quick action to nerf cloud saves, rendering it useless.

Those that own the game digitally will find it under the Xbox One’s My Games & Apps section, while those with a disc need to simply insert it to begin the download process.

Steve's the owner and Editor-in-Chief of Stevivor.com, the country’s leading independent video games outlet. Steve arrived in Australia back in 2001 on what was meant to be a three-month working holiday before deciding to emigrate and, eventually, becoming a citizen.

Stevivor is a combination of ‘Steve’ and ‘Survivor’, which made more sense back in 2001 when Jeff Probst was up in Queensland. The site started as Steve’s travel blog before transitioning over into video games.

Aside from video games, Steve has interests in hockey and Star Trek, playing the former and helping to cover video games about the latter on TrekMovie.com. By day, Steve works as the communications manager of the peak body representing Victorians as they age.
