    Borderlands GotY Editon Xbox 360. Add-On Disc not installing on Xbox One.

    If I remember rightly, the backward compatible version of Borderlands had the DLC included in the game, so there was no need to install it. Hence why the DLC disc was not compatible.

    All Games Backward Compatibility doesn´t work on Xbox One

    This issue needs to be addressed none of my backwards compatibility games are working. It keeps asking me if I own the game or not. None of my backwards compatibility games are showing up in my ready to install. DLC is not being recognized even though it's
