Dark Souls Original Not Ready For Backwards Compatibility.

GetJakeRyan · Mar 4, 2016

So Finally received my DS1 code, after waiting 17 days, only to find out that, yes, you get the code for preordering DS3, but its useless. DS1 not ready for backwards compatibility. What a rip off. Supposedly it won't be available for BC until the release
of the DS3, or possible just before. Who gives a **** about DS1 if you have DS3 to play? Not me. Microsoft is deceptive.

Dark souls (1) dissapeared

The message said "Your purchase of Dark Souls III includes Dark Souls for Xbox 360. We will send you a message to let you know your token is ready for use when Dark Souls is ready on backwards compatibility. (Code was here)"

It's not compatible yet...

Dark Souls Xbox One

Is the first Dark Souls game ready for backward compatibility on Xbox One. Because I would really like to start on the series.

Hey there,

There is nothing we can share at this time as far as when Dark Souls will be backwards compatible, but your free copy of Dark Souls is playable on Xbox 360.

Thanks for posting!

The deluxe package description said:

For a limited time, purchase a digital pre-order of DARK SOULS™ III on the Xbox One Store and get the original Dark Souls playable on Xbox One

NOT

For a limited time, purchase a digital pre-order of DARK SOULS™ III on the Xbox One Store and get the original Dark Souls playable on Xbox One When backwards compatibility becomes available

Sounds like false advertising to me

Correct, Dark Souls is part of the xbox 360 backward compatibility list. If you purchase the game from the 360 xbox marketplace link, you will find the title in the games and apps section of xbox one "ready to install"
