Gamers who have an Xbox One and like the Geometry Wars franchise will be glad for the latest news on backwards compatibility. Xbox one owners can now play the Xbox 360 titles Geometry Wars: Retro Evolved 2 and Geometry Wars 3: Dimensions on the Xbox One. Gamers who own one or both games digitally will see them in the Ready to Download list just waiting for you to download and play them.

If you don’t own the titles yet, but liked playing them you will be able to purchase both on Xbox.com or via the console. Retro Evolved 2 will set you back $10 and Dimensions will cost $15. Retro Evolved 2 launched in 2008 and was a popular game. Geometry Wars 3 launched in 2014 and was also popular.

The third title in the franchise was an Xbox One native title, but if you owned the game on the Xbox 360, now you can play it again without having to purchase the Xbox One version. These two new games gaining backwards compatiblity come after the original Geometry Wars title came to the backwards compatiblity list in 2016.

A few other notable games have been added to the Xbox one backwards compatibility list recently for gamers with large Xbox 360 catalogs. The games include Dead Space 2 and 3, Far Cry 3, Civilization Revolution, and Black Ops II reports Gamespot.
