  1. Cannot purchase backwards compatible games from the store


    Whenever I click the 'See Price' button the Xbox live store it says "Try again later Check your internet connection and try again. We couldn't connect to the store" furthermore when I tried purchasing the game from the Xbox.com website it would bring up
    an error page upon clicking the 'buy' button. Any fixes?

    :)

    Hi!

    If you are inside the backward-compatible menu (X360 interface from X1) you can purchase additinal contents for X360. You cannot purchase them directly from dashboard of X1, but you can only buy backward-compatible games.

    Games are "Bundle Only"

    Hello ivanitskyy,

    Unfortunately, you cannot game from the backwards compatibility list from the Xbox One store. You can only purchase them from an 360 or the website.

    I'm wondering if after the Xbox 360 store closes if I will still be able to buy 360 games on Xbox.com and play them on my 360.

    you would only be able to buy backwards compatible games on the Xbox one/series store. They do not go backwards to the 360.

    You cannot buy games once the store has deactivated purchasing, or add new games to your account for 360 store

    Backwards compatibility Xbox one s all digital

    If you have any specific questions, it would be best to ask those.

    If you've already purchased any games that are backwards compatible, they'll show as ready to install in your library in your Games and Apps. If you previously played them on a 360 and stored your save on the cloud, your save will be there when you start
    to play the game.

    If you're looking to purchase backwards compatible games, you would do so the way you purchase One games through the Xbox store. You cannot use a Microsoft account balance to purchase backwards compatible games through the One, so you would need to use a
    credit card or Paypal to make the purchase.

    You can find a list of games that are backwards compatible at https://www.xbox.com/en-US/xbox-one/backward-compatibility?xr=shellnav
