No, game chat for Xbox 360 backward compatible titles on the Series X is not obsolete or impossible. However, if you are having trouble with it, you can try the troubleshooting steps listed in the document to resolve the issue.

And, if it were not backwards compatible, you might have to wait until the release of Xbox Series X, as they have said they have stopped working on bringing Backwards Compatible titles to Xbox One until the Series X launch to get Backwards Compatibility
up and running on the Series X. Form there, I imagine they will move back to bringing titles to both Series X and Xbox One for a few more years.

Xbox backwards compatability for Xbox One, Xbox360, and Original Xbox vary on a per title basis.

All games available on the Xbox marketplace will also be compatible with all systems, (with the exception of Kinect-only titles on Xbox One, which aren't compatible with other systems).

All titles provided as part of Games With Gold, Game Pass, and Ultimate are also compatible with Xbox One and Xbox S/X, (with Xbox360 and some Original Xbox titles working on Xbox360).

Please note that Original Xbox titles and some Xbox360 titles no-longer support online features or DLC.

Hello armando herrera94,

Thank you for your post. I understand you are looking for more games to be added to the backward compatible list. At this time, work on backward compatible titles is pushed back for the release of the Xbox Series X. The current list of

backward compatible games are the only titles available until the Xbox Series X release.

I hope this helps.

Hi,

Sadly, Warhammer 40K Space Marines is not backwards compatible with Xbox One or Series X. The only way to play this game is on an Xbox 360 or by purchasing the PC version on Steam.

Note: There is no separate list for Xbox 360 games on Series X. If I game is not BC on the Xbox One, it won't be BC on the Series X|S either.

The Xbox One wasn't powerful enough to make all Xbox 360 games BC as the 360 hardware uses a totally different type of CPU architecture. Unfortunately, the BC program has now ended. No more Xbox 360 or original Xbox games will be made backwards compatible. It wasn't a simple process, hence the limited amount of titles.
