With new releases growing more expensive by the year, plenty of players are looking back to older titles, with remasters and re-releases landing on modern consoles all the time.
According to information from a leaked memo obtained by The Verge, Xbox wants its next console – codenamed Project Helix – to be capable of playing every game from every Xbox generation.
That means every game ever released on Xbox, Xbox 360, Xbox One, Xbox Series X/S and of course future Project Helix titles will be available on the console, should Xbox get its way.
While not mentioned, it also feels safe to assume that any games requiring external peripherals will probably not be making the jump, so apologies to all you Kinect fans out there.
Beyond the potential sales garnered by such a move, Xbox will reportedly manage "all engineering, the bespoke emulator, title-by-title certification and testing, storefront merchandising, and player support."
From a publisher point of view, this does seem almost too good to be true, with Xbox covering all the cost of the re-release, essentially racking up some free money that they otherwise would not have.
With future Xbox titles returning to being console exclusives, and a potential two decades of Xbox games made available to a new audience, it appears Xbox is no longer concerned with selling software over hardware, and is positioning itself for a world in which they will have to work hard to sell consoles, with the next generation poised to cost more than $1000 at launch.
But if it means I get to play Blinx: The Time Sweeper in 4K then it might be a sacrifice we all need to make.
