There's a new game added to the list of Xbox One Backward Compatibility roster as revealed by Xbox Director of Programming Larry Hyrb. Also known by his Xbox Live Gamertag "Major Nelson," he tweeted the arrival of "Alice: Madness Returns."

The Xbox 360 game is now part of the Xbox One Backward Compatibility and should be automatically added to the game console's title library. But if the "Alice: Madness Returns" didn't appear yet, the player can buy it through the gadget itself or through Xbox.com download link for $20 with 5.41 GB files. According to GameSpot, the psychological horror action-adventure video game was released in 2011 also for PlayStation 3 and PC.

In fact, there are now a total 300 Xbox 360 games that are playable on Xbox One through the BC program. Meanwhile, the titles coming to the Games with Gold February 2017 lineup has been announced by Microsoft, Daily Express reported.

Typically, fans will be treated with two Xbox 360 titles and two Xbox One games ready for download through Xbox One Backward Compatibility program.
