Witcher 2 Gets Backwards-Compatible On Xbox One, Is Free For Two Weeks
The Witcher 3 was easily one of the best games to come out of 2015. It was a big enough hit that many people who hadn't even played the previous games decided to pick it up. If you're one of those people, and you want to play the earlier games, today is your lucky day.
Today, Microsoft announced the next batch of Xbox 360 games that are now compatible with the company's latest console. There are 10 new games in total, including The Witcher 2: Assassins of Kings. Check out the full list below:
- The Witcher 2: Assassins of Kings
- Sam & Max Save the World
- Aegis Wing
- Counter-Strike: GO
- Age of Booty
- Space Giraffe
- Soulcalibur
- Skullgirls
- Jeremy McGrath's Offroad
- Small Arms
While it's not a long list, there are at least a few that I'm excited to see on there. But that's not the only good news for those wanting to check out the earlier Witcher titles. The Witcher 2 is actually free for download here.
Microsoft and CD Projekt RED teamed up to make this title 100% free for both Xbox 360 and Xbox One owners from now until February 5th. Even if you're not ready to play it yet, you might as well jump on the free download before the promotion ends.
