Burnout Paradise joining the catalog is no surprise at all, given that the game’s developer, Criterion, announced plans to bring the game to Xbox One all the way back in July 2015. The game is one of the free Games With Gold titles for December 2016, going live on December 16. As of November 2015, all new Xbox 360 Games With Gold titles are playable on Xbox One through backwards compatibility.
If you already own Burnout Paradise or Rayman Legends, they should show up automatically in your Xbox One game library. If not, you can buy them on Xbox One. Note that Pure requires the Xbox 360 game disc to play on Xbox One and is not available digitally.
Burnout Paradise ($15)
Rayman Legends ($40)
In other news about backwards compatibility, Microsoft recently confirmed that Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 and The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion are not coming to the program, at least not yet. There are more than 280 games in the Xbox One backwards compatibility program right now.
