The following games will join the PC backward compatibility catalogue with achievements: Star Wars: KOTOR, Star Wars: KOTOR 2, Blinx: The Time Sweeper, and Conker: Live and Reloaded. You can unlock achievements for these games when playing on an Xbox console too.
This announcement comes as part of Xbox’s ongoing FanFest. Xbox CEO Asha Sharma also used the event to reveal that id Software is working on its next game after Doom: The Dark Ages.
Xbox will also be hoping that this earns it some goodwill in the gaming community, following a year full of layoffs.
These layoffs are part of Xbox’s ongoing “reset”, which has seen multiple studios spun off, sold, or merged with others, such as Bethesda and Obsidian, who now work together. Others have seen a massively reduced headcount.
