First up is the first Metal Gear game to join the lineup, though it’s perhaps not the first game that comes to mind when thinking about that series. Metal Gear Rising: Revengeance is an action spin-off that takes place after Metal Gear Solid 4 and stars Raiden as a katana-wielding cyborg.
Of course, Revengeance was the first title in the series to debut on Xbox 360, following long history of PlayStation exclusivity. Not like Microsoft had much choice here — though we’re hoping it means 2011’s Metal Gear Solid HD Collection will join the BC lineup soon.

The next game on the list is Screamride, a combination construction simulator and puzzle game that gives players completely destructible roller coasters to play around with. Interestingly, this game is already out as an Xbox One title, so its addition to backward compatibility just means that you’re now able to play the game off of the Xbox 360 version.
