Speaking of Xbox, Deathloop is now on Game Pass. It’s not a game you’re going to want to miss. Check out the trailer below.
This is actually a pretty useful update, particularly if you’ve got a ton of your old Xbox One games lying about. Previously, Xbox Series X/S owners could only play Xbox One games if they had an active internet connection, but that’s no longer the case. Xbox One games are now accessible to play offline.
The change was confirmed by engineering lead Eden Marie on Twitter. She wrote, “Yes, this is true since the 2206 update. We examined data since Series X/S launch & determined the online compatibility check isn’t needed in the vast majority of cases for Xbox One discs. Some games may still need to be updated online after install to ensure the best experience.”
As pointed out by Engadget, the 2206 update was released over the summer so this change has unknowingly been in place for quite some time. Enjoy some offline play, folks.
