Xbox Backwards Compatibility Transfer Cable

KeRnAnAtOr · Jun 26, 2015

Will the xbox 360 data transfer cable work for transferring save files, games, and dlc over to the xbox one?

Is it possible to transfer DLC games from 360 to one?

If the games are backwards compatible, they will show as "Ready to Install" in your Games and Apps. If they are not backwards compatible, then you cannot transfer them to the One. You can see a list of backward compatible games here -

The data transfer cable is used to transfer the entire content of a harddrive from one HDD to another for the Xbox360

DLC, games and savefiles will just be available for download but will not be transferable through the transfercable. Savegames need to be saved to the cloud on the Xbox 360 before they are made available on the Xbox One the other content will just be available
as a marketplace download or from the ready to install list

I know this is not good news but only specific games will work for backwards compatibility and many games that have a "new" edition on Xbox One will not support their previous versions saved games. I believe Skyrim is one of those where the new version
on Xbox One will not support the Xbox 360 save. Borderlands and MW2 make the list.

Check the backwards compatibility list below and you may want to check some forum posts to see which games would even work if you did get the transfer going.

The original intent of the transfer cable was to move games/content from one 360 to another 360 and was not included until later versions of the 360 where someone might be updating their 360 console to a similar model but larger storage or special edition.
The cable was never meant to support a transfer from 360 to Xbox One.

When Xbox One was released, backwards compatibility did not exist so there was no need to transfer games. Xbox One also has the ability to use your network to transfer from one Xbox One to another Xbox One so the need for the cable is not there even when
you move from one model to another for more storage or a special edition.

Heya!

Which version of the game did you purchase?

Keep in mind that only games that are Backward Compatible will transfer from the Xbox 360 console to the Xbox One console.

For info on backwards compatible games be sure to check out
the full list.

If the game is not listed there then it would not transfer to an Xbox One console.

We hope that helps clarify!
