We are pleased to announce that the next episode of Inside Xbox will air Tuesday, April 10 at 3:30 p.m. PDT / 6:30 p.m EDT, and while we can’t reveal all our goodies just yet, we hope the video above will whet your Xbox appetite.

One of our most common requests is for Original Xbox Backward Compatibility news, and we’ll be starting off the show with a big update on just that.

Divinity II: Dragon Knight Saga and Assassin's Creed IV: Black Flag are now BC.

the "big reveal" is tonight at 6:30 PM EST, however a few original Xbox games have leaked onto the Xbox One marketplace, among them Morrorwind!

I look forward to seeing what the full reveal is. Last time MS did this we got a dozen original Xbox titles at once.

As someone who loves the original Xbox's backwards compatibly on the Xbox One (they play and look great), I hope they were not all the games we are getting. Sure Morrowind is great, but more Xbox exclusives is where it's at.

19 games added. Morrowind, Panzer Dragoon Orta, a bunch of Star Wars...

Hell yeah! That is a sweet update with some great titles.

EDIT: Do we know when this goes live?

EDIT EDIT: Apparently some are dropping on the 17th and the rest on the 26th of this month.

Blinx!

Blinx!

I would have been excited about this, but the game has inverted controls that you can't change.

I feel like this was a rather solid dump of new-old games...

...Morrowind and Panzer Dragoon Orta are the two biggies for me here. As a reminder, Orta has the original Panzer Dragoon as an unlockable as well.

I've heard good things about Jade Empire, but I don't really know much about it. SSX3 is def a good game, although the SSX reboot that came later is probably my preferred game. Maybe not, though.

Anyway, all those Star Wars titles are icing on the cake for sure.

Oh geez, I don't remember that, that does put a damper on it lol.

Noise, Jade Empire is great! Do you like those types of games, it's very "of that era" like KOTOR and other Bioware titles of the time.
