Add game to Xbox digital store

Could y’all add the old Lord of the Rings games like:

lord of the rings conquest

Lord of the rings third age

Lord of the rings return of the king/two towers/fellowship for the ring

These games would be awesome to be able to play and enjoy like back in the good ole days.

Hello, Dakota O. I'm Arturo, and I'll be glad to provide assistance with your inquiry today.

I regret to inform you, but the Xbox backward compatibility program has ended a few years ago. This means that probably the games you're talking about will not be added.

You can review the full announcement here:

https://news.xbox.com/en-us/2021/11/15/70-new-backward-compatible-games/

“This latest and final addition of 70+ titles to the backwards compatibility program was only possible through the passion and feedback from the community. Your constant requests for specific titles and enhancements encouraged the Backwards Compatibility team to partner with the original creators to preserve thousands of games from over four generations of Xbox. While we continue to stay focused on preserving and enhancing the art form of games, we have reached the limit of our ability to bring new games to the catalog from the past due to licensing, legal and technical constraints. Thank you for being part of this journey with us.”

Regards,

Arturo.

To add, these purchases made on the digital Xbox Store in the last year were newly released Games, Movies and TV Shows at the time.

I bought a disc copy of Batman: Arkham Origins a backwards compatible Xbox 360 game and I used to be able to see it for sale digitally on the Microsoft store, but ever since I installed onto my xbox via disc i can’t see the game itself in the store,
I can only see the add ons. Any reason as to why this is happening? I’d like to own it digitally instead but the digital game page is nowhere to be found.

What you mean with "for sale digitally on the microsoft store" ?

If you have the original disc in your tray, the console start downloading the Xbox One version.

Are you asking this because of the add-ons and exclusive that preorders come with? If so, you can't preorder a digital game but you can get all the free add-ons in the Xbox Store the day the game is released. The only exclusive you can't get for free are
the ones that retail store may have solely for those who purchase from them.
