The Witcher 2, Crackdown, and Fable Anniversary Will All Be Getting Xbox One X Enhancements

This is a great bunch of games!

Posted By | On 27th, Feb. 2018

One of the coolest things Microsoft is doing with the Xbox One X is remastering and enhancing old Xbox 360 games for Xbox One X compatibility- all free of charge. We already have some good Xbox 360 games, such as Oblivion, that have benefitted from this program- and now we know the next batch of games that will be getting One X enhancements.

On Xbox Wire, Microsoft announced that the original Crackdown would be one of the games that would be getting Xbox One X enhancements- presumably, this is to prep up players ahead of the impending launch of Crackdown 3 later this year (I hope). Fable Anniversary, the Xbox 360 remaster of the original Fable, will be another- which should serve as a primer for Fable fans, especially if news about the upcoming Fable 4 is real.

The true crown jewel of this batch, however, will be The Witcher 2: Assassins of Kings. The game released on Xbox 360 as a console exclusive back in 2012- now, Xbox players can play it with full Xbox One X enhancements. Which is absolutely fantastic, and as good a reason as any for players to visit Geralt’s second major gaming adventure.

This brings the total number of Xbox 360 games enhanced for Xbox One X to 11- hopefully, Microsoft continues to add to that number in the future, too.
