The Australian Xbox Games Store has announced that Dark Souls is heading to the Xbox One backwards compatibility program. Moreover, the Xbox 360 title will be offered as a freebie to those that pre-order Dark Souls III on Xbox One.

The listing, since removed, suggests that those who pre-order Dark Souls III will receive a code for Dark Souls within 10 days.

The backwards compatible title has not been officially confirmed by Microsoft or Bandai Namco.

We’ll have more on this as it develops.

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.
