Microsoft’s backward compatibility initiative makes it possible for Xbox One owners to play some of the best games released on the Xbox 360- whether it is jumping back into old favorites, or trying them out for the first time. Now, two new games have been added to the Xbox One backward compatibility list, both from Ubisoft’s beloved Splinter Cell series of stealth action games.

Splinter Cell: Double Agent was one of the more controversial games in the series (at least, the Xbox 360 version), at least until the even more controversial Splinter Cell: Conviction launched. Nonetheless, it has its own fans that will appreciate the opportunity to go hands on with it again. Meanwhile, Blacklist, which launched in 2013, is actually probably one of the best games in the series that managed to go under the radar for many, owing to bad release timing, and residual bad word of mouth from Conviction. This should be a great chance for many Splinter Cell fans to see exactly what they missed out on.

Hopefully, these games see a surge in sales, which causes Ubisoft to take even more notice of the latent interest for the brand.

If you haven’t already gotten into the Rainbow Six Siege beta (in which case, assuming you were interested in the first place, you really have no excuse, there have been loads of ways to get into it, and all of them relatively easy and unrestrictive), then here’s another shot you get- just get the Humble Tom Clancy Bundle, and you get guaranteed access to the beta.

In addition to the beta access, you also get games like Tom Clancy’s Rainbow Six, Tom Clancy’s Rainbow Six Vegas, Tom Clancy’s Rainbow Six 3 Gold, Tom Clancy’s Splinter Cell Chaos Theory, and Tom Clancy’s Ghost Recon; pay more than the average price, and you also get Tom Clancy’s Rainbow Six Vegas 2, Tom Clancy’s Splinter Cell Conviction Deluxe Edition, and Tom Clancy’s Splinter Cell. Finally, pay more than $10, and in addition to all that, you also get Tom Clancy’s Splinter Cell Blacklist and Tom Clancy’s Ghost Recon Future Soldier.

If all those games aren’t enough, you can also pay at least 75 dollars and get a copy of Tom Clancy’s Rainbow Six Siege (pre-order), a Tom Clancy’s Rainbow Six Siege shirt and a 66% off up to any three Ubisoft titles in the Humble Store coupon, excluding pre-orders.

So yeah, it’s a good deal. If you have even the slightest interest in the Tom Clancy games… why wait?
