Ninja Gaiden 2 comes to Xbox back compat alongside Fable and Splinter Cell One X enhancements

Inside Xbox has delivered today with a huge list of backward compatibility announcements.

Firstly, Ninja Gaiden 2 has finally made its way to Xbox One. The fantastic sequel to the already backward compatible Ninja Gaiden Black, Ninja Gaiden 2 is one of the best hack and slash games of all time.

Ninja Gaiden 2 will be enhanced for Xbox One X – it’s going to look AMAZING! 

Microsoft has also decided to update already available backward compatible titles with One X upgrades.

Fable II and Fable III will both see upgrades alongside three Splinter Cell games. If you wanted what are essentially free remasters of Splinter Cell Blacklist, Conviction and Double Agent, you’ve got them!

And while we're at it, Tom Clancy's Splinter Cell Conviction, Blacklist, and Double Agent – all already in the Xbox One Backward Compatibility program – are being enhanced for Xbox One X. https://t.co/qPMRNs2ZLo pic.twitter.com/rDRofCAfis

It’s a great day to be an Xbox One owner, especially on One X. With One X enhancements for backward compatible games becoming rarer these days, this is a solid announcement. Now, it’s time to hack and slash!
