Backwards compatibility of 2k24 digital version

Hi there Clay, my name is Gerardo, and I'm an Xbox player, just like you. I'll be happy to assist you with any questions or concerns you may have.

Yes, the Xbox One digital version of NBA 2K24 will work on an Xbox Series X console, however, it will run the non-optimized Xbox One version, not the Xbox Series version.

I hope this helps and if you have further questions please let me know.

Kind regards,
Gerardo.

Only the disc version is backwards compatible. A digital copy won't work.

Any game that is backwards compatible will work if you buy it on disc or digital. You can view a list of all backwards compatible games at https://www.xbox.com/xbox-one/backward-compatibility/available-games
Since that game is on the list, then yes, you can play the digital version on the One.

Skyrim is not backwards compatible. You would need to purchase the One version in order to play it on the One.

If a game is backwards compatible and you purchased a digital version, it will show in your Ready to Install section of your Games and Apps on the One.

If a game is not compatible with Xbox One, whether it's a digital or disc version, it cannot be played on the console. However, some Xbox 360 games are backward compatible with Xbox One, and you can check the list of backward compatible games on the Xbox website. If the game you purchased is on the list, you can download and play the digital version on your Xbox One.
