Amount current information provided to us by Xbox the last few months have been more than remarkable. As a result of undoubtedly the peculiarities facing the console market in general and the problems that are specifically limited to Microsoft’s gaming platform, so far in 2024 we have had long-awaited rejections, the changes in strategy that they have made surprised us and the future promises to be looks very promising. But in the meantime, there are also signs that the market is weighing its positions.

In a special edition of the Xbox podcast, they confirmed to us in less than an hour that yes, will be the next generation console, that it will be, technically, very advanced, and that they will start bringing some of what was their exclusivity to other platforms. We recently learned that Phil Spencer wants third-party stores to come to Xbox. And in the meantime, we began to know more and more about the laptop, which was long rumored to bring more joy to the Microsoft ecosystem.

So we have enough news about the future, don’t we They should not force us to forget the past. And no, don’t worry, it’s not like I just read a book by Coelho and dramatized it, no. The thing is, the Xbox wouldn’t be what it is today without its successes (like a lot of what surrounds the Xbox 360) and mistakes (like a lot of what surrounds the Xbox One), and it’s in that backpack that the titles play, of course, a very important role.

The good news is that Redmond is also aware of this, the importance of history and as we can read in Windows Central, Xbox has created a task force dedicated to game protection and backwards compatibility, a hot topic, the latter whenever the launch of a new generation of consoles approaches. More specifically, they are currently working on preparing what is necessary to be able to play current and possibly past titles in future generations.

It is interesting that this information is now published, a few months before the Xbox 360 store closedas he invites us to think that his first order of business will be working to ensure that all of the notable titles in his catalog are available and fully playable in the current generation.
