  1. Can the Left4Dead2 disk be played on any Xbox console? Specifically the new series?


    My Xbox one stopped working completely and I was looking into purchasing the newer console. However, left4dead is my favourite game and it would really put a strain on me purchasing a newer version of the Xbox if I can’t play it. So my question is, if I have the disk can I play it on the newer versions of the Xbox (X and S)?

    :)

    Can the Left4Dead2 disk be played on any Xbox console? Specifically the new series?

    The game is backwards compatible, so yes, you can play it on the Series X. The Series S doesn't have a disc drive, so you would need to own it digitally in order to play it there.

    Two Xbox One Series X in one Home

    Series x consoles are NOT xbox ones

    They ate just xbox series x or s

    It's to avoid confusion xbox one games are compatible with xbox one all versions except for disk games on digital and can use hdds

    Vs series consoles all digital series content work on series consoles

    But disk games work only on disk consoles and next gen storage

    Is there any talk about at least producing a disc reader for the Xbox series S?

    No as ita by design

    Series s is not meant to use a disk drive AA IRA far too small and lacks the security chip

    Ontop of that you would need more storage

    Series s is specifically designed to use less space not more as you need space for temporary files for installation and swap files since you need to constantly buffer to keep up with the disk reading

    And digital consoles are designed as digital consoles not disks

    This is regardless of console

    Any news would be on wire.Xbox.com

    Only thing on the books is ps5 pro with the modular design but as proven with Lego phoneand moto z series modular has been proven a failure

    Your suggestion. Would be more expensive then the piice difference between series s and x

    Which make it a instant failure

    Unreadable disk in the same spot on new disk

    Hi Louise,

    What’s the specific game you’re referring to? You might be able to purchase the digital version if it’s still available.

    Disk drives can be really strange. I had a similar issue where an Xbox One disk (Forza Horizon 3, and the disk was carefully cleaned with no visible scratches) wouldn’t play on my friend’s Xbox One because of the unreadable error, but the console would read/play other disks okay and the same disk would play perfectly fine on mine and on a Series X.

    You can also try installing the game (or reinstall if it already is) directly to internal storage:

    Manage your Xbox 360 game library | Xbox Support

    Hope this helps.

    So, Xbox Series X|S Console’s can’t play the backward’s compatible edition of games if & when downloading them onto an external hard drive that would work fine with last generation Xbox Console?

    The games still need to be validated by the new console.

    Any games not specifically for Series consoles will work on an external drive
