The backward compatibility feature of Xbox One has always been a major selling point mentioned by Microsoft, but is it really the case? How many players use this feature in reality?

The backward compatibility feature allows players to play some old Xbox 360 games on Xbox One, and the number of games that support backward compatibility has been increasing.This is quite convenient for some players who like nostalgia. At least these players don’t have to do troubles such as “moving out the old Xbox 360 console, changing to HDMI cable, and charging the two controllers”.

However, a foreign media investigation poured a bowl of cold water on this function, and almost no one used it as backward compatible.Ars Technica has been mining Xbox Live data recently and found that only 1.5% of players play backward compatible games.

In terms of time, in the 1.65 billion minute sample, the average Xbox One user played Xbox One backward compatible games for only 23.9 minutes, while the average spending time on the console was 1529 minutes.

The most popular backward compatible game is Call of Duty 7: Black Ops, which has played this game on average for every 1,000 active Xbox Live users.However, except for Call of Duty 7, there are no other backward compatible games that are shortlisted for even the 100 Xbox Live players.Therefore, the downward compatibility feature that Microsoft has always been talking about does not seem to be used by many players.

Recently, Sony also talked about backward compatibility.At that time, a player asked whether PS4 would follow Xbox one to launch backward compatibility, but Sony's reply was "Why do players want to play old games"?
