Ninja Gaiden II is now backwards compatible on Xbox One, Director Of Programming for Xbox Live Larry Hryb has revealed. Since announcing the backwards compatibility feature, Microsoft has added hundreds of X360 games and even some projects from the original Xbox to the ever-expanding list of playable titles. If you already own the 2008 game, you can play it on your XO at no additional charge.
Hryb has also officially confirmed that five already backward-compatible video games are now enhanced for Xbox One X (they all now run at a higher resolution – and at 9x the original pixel count), including Fable II, Fable III, Tom Clancy's Splinter Cell: Double Agent, Conviction, and finally Blacklist.
Rumor has it that Ubisoft will announce the next step in Splinter Cell's evolution at the E3 in June (with the possibility of the team at Microsoft revealing Playground Games' take on the Fable series being on the cards), so be sure to give each of those acclaimed games a fair chance in glorious 4K.
