I have Disc versions of games on Xbox One, how will i play them on Series S?

I have several disc games for my Xbox One, i am buying a Series S, but how will i pay them on it?

You wouldnt. Xbox Series S can only play digital games so if you want to play them on Series S you would have to repurchase them digitally.

You would have to purchase them digitally in order to play them on the S.

Hey TechNo1geek

Thank you for taking the time to post this on the Xbox Forums. We understand that you are inquiring about using physical media on the Series S variation of the next-gen console.

If you wish to play any physical media on the next-gen console, you will need to acquire the Series X variation.

As you have already been provided with all the info available, we will now be locking this thread.

If you have any other questions or concerns that differ from this matter, please, feel free to create a new thread and we will cater to you there.

Thank you for being a part of the Xbox Family and we wish you a wonderful day!

This is an incorrect assumption. You can insert an xbox one disc and download updates that may improve visuals and frame rates on Xbox Series X/S but in order to play you still need the disc unless you own the digital version of it.

Xbox Series X will utilize the Xbox One X version of enhancements while Xbox series S will use the Xbox One S enhancements.

You will not get a free game by borrowing or renting a physical version of a game and installing it on Xbox Series X/S.

It is compatible with a Series X. It is not compatible with the One or a Series S since it doesn't have a disc drive.

According to my Xbox Series X|S, the disc is “incompatible”, and I can only play a compatible version of it if I pay $62.99 for a new copy WITH EA Play.
