    Skyrim Legendary edition isn't recognised by Series X console


    I wanted to get the new version of Skyrim released late last year, and I have the Xbox 360 Legendary version. I thought if I installed it on the Series X it would upgrade to the latest version.

    Alas I get the message: Sorry, this game isn't playable here.

    I legitimately own the Legendary version of Skyrim where I should get the update for free, but because my console will not recognise the disk, I am unable to.

    This really is wrong. I will not pay for the upgrade, since I should automatically get it.

    Is there any information on the disks or cover that I can send you to allow me to get the latest complete game?

    Regards,

    Leigh

    :)

    I already said goodbye. not interested in people who refuse to think for themselves and won't try to actually help customers.

    GOODBYE again. No more

    Forget it. You don't see my point. You won't see my point. And you don't want to see my point. It's a waste of time trying to make Microsoft see anything. goodbye, and I'll go back to my PS4.

    I totally understand, however, the game has its own version that can be played on Xbox One or Xbox Series X|S and the 360 version game is not backward-compatible, even if we want to it is not designed to be played on the Xbox Series X|S console.
    The point: I own the game (which Bethesda have said is fine to update to the latest version)

    I should be able to get latest version because I own the game. Am I right?

    I just wish you would make the sensible decision here and not just throw proforma paragraphs at me. It doesn't work on me.

    I WILL NOT buy the new version. This is unfair.

    If the 360 game is a backward-compatible game updating or playing the game will not be an issue, Arpeggio66.

    Hi, I hope you're doing great out there despite the issue that you're experiencing. I am an Independent advisor and I am here to help you in regards to your concern.

    I apologize but the game is not a backward-compatible game. There is a different version for Xbox One or Xbox Series X|S but the 360 version can't be played on the Xbox One or Xbox Series X|S.

    For your reference, you can check the backward compatible list here: https://www.xbox.com/en-US/games/backward-compa...
    All you have done is told me what i already realised. You have missed my point altogether.

    I have a copy of the game that "should" allow me to be able to install the latest version.

    That is what I want. As it stands I cannot play a game that i have the disk for and also cannot play the latest version.

    At least all the big name games like Skyrim should be added to the backwards compatible list
