If you fall in love with Cyberpunk 2077 on Xbox One this year, there will be no need to buy the game back on Xbox Series X in 2021. Not only will the game be backwards compatible, but it will also be automatically upgraded for the next generation of consoles. A free upgrade will allow you to benefit from notable graphic improvements on the new generation of Xbox.
Dubbed Smart Delivery, this new technology will be widely used on the support. For now, only one compatible game is announced: this is the next CD Projekt game, the much anticipated Cyberpunk 2077 . However, it is very likely that Microsoft applies the same strategy for all its exclusives and that the majority of publishers also stick to it.
Backward compatibility questions the contributions of Xbox Series X
Microsoft has not yet provided details on the backward compatibility of its machine, which should run all Xbox One games as well as some Xbox and Xbox 360 games - those that are part of the list of backward compatible games on Xbox One . All of these titles will benefit from the hardware improvements of the Xbox Series X with shorter loading times and improved graphics.
What Microsoft has not yet specified is whether the Series X games will all be backward compatible and whether we will really talk about new generation or if, in the end, it will only be an extension of the current one - scenario which seems to be gradually taking shape.
