Despite the exciting news, the compatibility program lead of Xbox Peggy Lo furthered on the blogpost that they have reached the limit of their ability to add new titles to the catalog from the past due to licensing, legal and technical constraints, even if they remain committed to maintaining and improving the art form of games.
It is only due to the enthusiasm and comments of the community that the latest and final addition of more than 70 titles to the backward compatibility program was made possible.
In relation to this, the backward compatibility team partnered with the original creators to retain thousands of games from four generations of Xbox because of the continual requests of Xbox users for specific titles and improvements.
