Saints Row 2 Is Now Playable on Xbox One Thanks to Backward Compatibility

This means all the wacky Saints Row games are now on Xbox One!

Posted By | On 01st, May. 2018

Saints Row 2, Volition’s gloriously over the top open world action game where their franchise truly began to come into its own (and arguably the best blend of grounded and ridiculous) is now playable on a current generation system, thanks to Xbox One’s backward compatibility feature. The game is the latest one to be whitelisted for Xbox One’s feature.

As with all backward compatible games, all you have to do is put in your disc or download your digital copy, and you can play the game no problem. If you don’t own it already, you should be able to buy it on the Xbox Store instead.

Xbox One’s backward compatibility feature continues to grow, with hundreds of Xbox 360 games playable on the console already, and over a dozen original Xbox games as well. With Saints Row 3 already compatible on Xbox One, this means that all the good games in the series are now playable on Microsoft’s current console.

Has your favorite Xbox 360 game been made compatible on the Xbox One?
