When the Xbox Series X launches this November, you'll be able to play over 3000 backwards compatible titles across three generations of Xbox - the original Xbox, the Xbox 360 and the Xbox One.
In addition to this, various developers are working to enhance their previously released Xbox One titles for the next generation, with the likes of Gears 5, Ori and the Will of the Wisps, Destiny 2 and many other popular titles getting a free Xbox Series X upgrade with improved visuals and faster frame rates.
So, before more of these are inevitably announced, we want to know which current Xbox One games you'd like to see get the enhanced treatment on the system. Give us your wishlist in the comments below!

I'd like to see some love on the earlier Xbox One titles. Forza Horizon 2, Rare Replay, Quantum Break and Dead Rising 3 to name a few. Since these were all made before the One X I'm sure an update would assist these titles very nicely.
All the Prince of Persia games, Mirror's Edge, the Fable titles, Stubbs the Zombie, the original Xbox gen Mortal Kombat games (at least Armageddon) and Lord of the Rings games, Max Payne 1&2, etc etc etc.
@pip_muzz Just finished Quantum Break last night, what a treat.
Outer Worlds
Quantum break
Sunset overdrive
Gears Of War Ultimate Edition
Borderlands 3
Titanfall 2
Star Wars Jedi Fallen Order
@Bmartin001 Definitely Fallen Order. Trying to play that game on an OG Xbox One isn't much fun at times.
Gears 4 and 3 and 2 and 1
Borderlands 3
Halo Wars 2
Forza Horizon 3
Titanfall 2
Outer Worlds
Star Wars Jedi Fallen Order
The Witcher 3
Red Dead 2
Resident Evil 2 +3 Remakes
Also wouldn't mind a 4K upgrade for Lost Odyssey and Blue Dragon.
Borderlands 3 and Fallout 4 comes to mind.
NFL Blitz. Don't even worry about changing the rosters
All the Forza Horizons, Gears Ultimate, 4 and 5, Streets of Rage 4, Sunset Overdrive, the Tomb Raiders, Quantum Break, Killer Instinct, Resident Evil 2, 3 and 7, DOOM Eternal. There's a bunch more. Definitely the FH games and Gears before anything else though. I play those games more than damn near everything else including big PlayStation and Nintendo exclusives.
Kingdom Hearts 3 (stability thank you and please I mean I’d love a stable 120 but stable 60 would make my day)
Ori and the Blind Forest (They are doing will of Wisps so why not both of they aren’t all ready)
@bmlinds I want blitz back so bad. New or backwards compatible at least.
@mousieone The game will probably lock at 60fps without any upgrade at all, since it targeted 60fps on Xbox One X. It wasn't a lock on Xbox One X, so the boost in hardware on Series X should guarantee that KH3 runs at a locked 60fps.
I really want to do another Sekiro run and go for a different ending, but I am waiting until after I get a Series X to see if it will finally run at a locked 60fps - the game runs at an uncapped framerate, but it hovered mostly in the 40's. I don't see From Software updating any of it's games for Series X or PS5.
I would like to see The Witcher 3 get like an Ultra Settings patch - even if that means the game still has to run at 30fps - though, given that performance of the Series X was a close match to a PC with an Nvidia 2080 (according to Digital Foundry tests of the unoptimized Gears 5 benchmark running on Series X), I think it could handle Ultra at 60fps.
@GamingFan4Lyf Actually it’s more like 2080S taking everything into account.
@Z3u5000 Nice - either way it blows my Surface Book 2 with it's 1060 out of the water!
@MAC26 Hoping the game 2K is working on is similar. While I'm at it, I'll ESPN NFL 2K5, NCAA Football games, and All-Pro Football to my list. And MVP Baseball 2005.
Quantum Break would look a treat in 4K/60. As for games I'm still playing, I'd say Overwatch and The Witcher III.
@GamingFan4Lyf I’m pretty sure it’s not even a locked 30 or something weird happens with the frame timing even when you put it stable mode. I’m not sure newer hardware is going to auto fix that. Maybe, but the game is really unstable. Hopefully.
That said yeah the Witcher 3 would be nice at those settings, and I can see CD Projekt Red doing that because meh they can
@Darthroseman Wasn't aware 2k was working on a football game but they do have NBA playgrounds and wwe battlegrounds so I guess that makes sense. And man mvp baseball would be great too!
Metro Exodus, Red Dead Redemption 2, Kingdom Come Deliverance, Fallout 76, Rage 2, Fallout New Vegas
Halo 5 and Forza Horizon 4.
Give Halo MCC a boosted frame rate. Halo 3 has a stupid high frame rate on PC, and it looks fantastic. It should get 120fps on XSX.
So many! Backwards compatibility is one of the main reasons I want the series X. I’d like to see:
Jet Set Radio Future
All the CAVE shooters
Sunset Overdrive
Rare Replay
Dead or Alive Series
Crazy Taxi 3
Beautiful Katamari
I like the goofy stuff
Modern warfare would be good I would have to think what would be good
There is no tv in existence yet that can put out all the specs of these next consoles and to get close you’ll need to spend upwards of 2K so most people will get the same experience they get now on current systems, even Sony’s new “ready for PS5” TVs won’t fulfill all its features
@WesEds
What are you talking about pal?
The LG OLED CX can do pretty much all of them.
Now obviously this set is around £1,500, but even most decent 4K LEDs can do 4K 60FPS and 1080P 120FPS.
Alot of the stuff will depend on the games and what the developers offer gamers.
I can't see many 4K 120FPS games tbh, most likely 1080p/1440p.
@blinx01 It does 120Hz not 120FPS. Also the cost of the tv in question as you said is £1,500 so technically I’m not wrong because after purchasing the console and a game to play on it it’s at the 2K mark.
Yeah it comes close to doing all of them but I’m sure most won’t want to spend that so will most likely play on their current tv.
@WesEds It can do 4k@120FPS using the 40gbps HDMI 2.1 bandwidth.
