Xbox 360 game code on Xbox One?

SlghtlyAbovAvrg · Jul 8, 2017

Hi. So, recently I purchased an Xbox 360 digital code for Fallout 3. I don't have an Xbox 360, and I had thought that the backward comparability feature on Xbox One also applied to game codes. So, I tried the code on my Xbox One and, to put it bluntly, it
didn't work. I would like to know if backward comparability does not apply to digital game codes, or if something else happened?

The bc does applies to digital game codes but so do the 360 constrictions like regions and so on. It would be more useful if you give us some info on the error code or what happens when you try to redeem the code you have.

[quote user="J4yblazer"]I wonder if the code that comes with the one would work for a download on the 360??[/quote]

No. They won't. Codes are unique to the product, so if you have a code for an Xbox One game, it will not work for the Xbox 360 version of that same game.

G'day LMAO! If that code is specific to Xbox 360 then it will only work on Xbox 360. Is there anything printed along with the code that states it can be used on Xbox One as well? If so, there will either be a 2nd code to be redeemed on Xbox One, or the content
will be downloadable from the game's Addons menu on your Xbox One console.

An Xbox One code is only for the Xbox One and an Xbox 360 code is only for the Xbox 360.

Hope this helps.

Xbox 360 Marketplace or Xbox 360 content on the Xbox One. but I can put the code in xbox360 to buy games

That means the code of the game is from another region. Is a xbox one game or xbox 360 game?
