Fallout New Vegas is now backwards compatible on Xbox One

Matthew Wilson June 23, 2016 Software & Gaming

Let's face it, Fallout 4 was a bit of a letdown when it comes to its RPG elements. Fortunately, we still have some excellent older titles in the series to turn to for our RPG fix, with one of the best being Obsidian's Fallout New Vegas. If you happened to own New Vegas on the Xbox 360 back in the day and have thought about jumping back in then you can now play it through on a much newer console, the Xbox One.

Microsoft began making Xbox 360 games backwards compatible around one year ago and since then, the library has grown quite a bit. In the latest round of additions, Microsoft included Fallout New Vegas and all of its DLC.

Fallout New Vegas came out in 2010 and brought back some familiar elements from Fallout 2, which some of the team over at Obsidian had also worked on at the time. The game puts you in the role of ‘the courier' working for Mojave Express, the game kicks off with you being mobbed and sets you out on a quest to reclaim the package that was taken from you.

KitGuru Says: Fallout New Vegas was my favourite in the series personally, though I don't think I have the disc anymore so playing it on Xbox One might be out of the question for me. Alternatively, if you happen to have moved on the PC gaming this generation and want to play New Vegas, you could always grab it in the Steam Sale that launched today.

Star Wars: Fate of the Old Republic director wants the game out before 2030

At The Game Awards on Thursday night, RPG fans received a massive win with the announcement of Star Wars: Fate of the Old Republic. The new game, spearheaded by KOTOR director, Casey Hudson, is a spiritual successor to Knights of the Old Republic. Due to the short cinematic reveal, fans anticipated a lengthy wait for the game, with a release after 2030. Hudson is much more optimistic on the development timeline though.

    New vegas was incredible. Though I used a cheat to give myself more carry weight while playing on survival. Unless you were melee only, it just seemed to be a massive hassle trying to lug around different guns with such a low max carry weight. That was the only changemod I used, because otherwise it was very well designed.
