<section class="text-description">
<p>Last week saw only four new games added to <a href="http://ift.tt/295YZQd" target="_blank">Xbox One Backwards Compatibility</a>, a relatively quiet week for Microsoft in recent months.</p>
<p>While things slowed down around E3, there were still plenty of titles confirmed following the Xbox conference.</p>
<p>And Microsoft continued their pledge to add new Xbox One Backwards Compatibility titles to the program, with as many as 24 new games arriving from Microsoft in June.</p>
<p>The newest arrivals are all Arcade games, meaning that many of them don’t hold a high ranking on the feedback survey.</p>
<p>These include Bloodforge, Go! Go! Break Steady, Gripshift, Mars: War Logs and Blood Knights.</p>
<p>It should also be noted that the <a href="http://ift.tt/29eGqNb" target="_blank">Games with Gold</a> July lineup contains Rainbow Six Vegas 2 for the first two weeks of this month, followed by Tron: Evolution and both can be downloaded for free by subscribers.</p>
<p>Fans are hoping that a recent change to the Red Dead Redemption Xbox store page may mean its release to Backwards Compatibility could come very soon.</p>

<p>While neither Rockstar or Microsoft have confirmed if the popular Xbox 360 title will ever be included, fans hope that the new update could signal something is brewing.</p>
<p>Reddit users have posted new images showing the game’s store page now listing RDR as available on “Xbox,” rather than a specific platform.</p>
<p>This would fit into Microsoft’s new overall strategy of removing barriers between different generations, using the Universal Windows Platform.</p>
<p>We already know that new version of the Xbox One are arriving in the next 18 months, while a select range of new titles will be playable on both Xbox and Windows 10, sharing the same save files.</p>

<p>However, it is still worth taking this hope with a big pinch of realism.</p>
<p>While it’s hardly a negative move on the part of Microsoft, there are a number of other reasons why they may have updated the Red Dead Redemption page.</p>
<p>It may be the case that the tech giant are changing the entire store and changing the tags on every game to show that it is available on the Xbox platform.</p>
<p>Other titles that have been promised but have yet to arrive include Bioshock Infinite, Bioshock and Bioshock 2, as well as Skate 2.</p>
<p>Hopes of Elder Scrolls 5: Skyrim joining the ranks now seem slim, following Bethesda&#8217;s official unveiling of the new Special Edition version of the game for PS4 and Xbox One at E3.</p>
<p>Black Ops 2 remains the most-wanted title voted for by fans with 178,495 likes, followed by Skyrim on 162,151 and Red Dead Redemption with 148,371.</p>
