Play Call of Duty: MW3 with new Xbox One Backwards Compatibility.
If you own a copy of Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 on Xbox 360, you can now dive back into the game on your Xbox One. Microsoft's Larry "Major Nelson" Hryb, Director of Programming for Xbox Live, has announced that the 2011 shooter is now playable on Xbox One via backward compatibility.
Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 is coming to Xbox One Backward Compatibility today (and it is currently on sale in this week's Deals With Gold)
Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 built off of the foundation set by its previous two iterations, picking up where Modern Warfare 2 left off. The single-player campaign follows the hunt for a Russian terrorist as he ignites tensions with a series of attacks throughout Europe. The series' main attraction, its multi player, also returned with new game modes in tow, including a cooperative, wave-based survival mode.
Backwards compatibility is a notable feature for Xbox One, but with a seemingly endless array of new games to tout during its press conference, Microsoft didn't focus on it at E3. It features prominently last year, as the company announced plans to introduce support for a select number of original Xbox games. Following the initial debut of that last year, another batch were released this spring. You can check out everything that's playable on Xbox One in our full list of backwards compatibility games.
