Call of Duty 2 now available on Xbox One Backward Compatibility

With the release of Xbox One Backward Compatibility, gamers can play some of their favorite Xbox 360 titles on their Xbox One, with more titles being added regularly to the list of available games. Microsoft today added Call of Duty 2 as an Xbox One Backward Compatibility title. The sequel to 2003’s Call of Duty, winner of over 80 Game of the Year awards, Call of Duty 2 offers more immense, more intense, more realistic battles than ever before, thanks to the stunning visuals of the new COD2 engine.

Call of Duty 2:

• All-new, unprecedented enhancements – revolutionary COD2 engine, groundbreaking AI, and choice-based gameplay innovations
• Bigger battles, with more tanks, troops, and explosions on-screen, and bigger scope, with a wide range of locales and environments across the European Theater
• Use rocket-propelled grappling hooks alongside your Army Ranger squad to storm and scale the cliffs of Pointe du Hoc against a relentless German counterassault, or slog through urban chaos as a tank hunter in war-torn Russia
• Rely on your squad more than before – The dozens of Allied soldiers surrounding you are fully aware of the changing situations around them, and will let you know using an all-new, context-sensitive battle chatter system
• Send your men to draw enemy fire, lay down cover for you, use foxholes and moving tanks for cover, and warn you of incoming enemy troops and hostile fire
