Microsoft adds three games to Xbox One Backward Compatibility

Microsoft is adding three more games to the Xbox One Backward Compatibility list today. The new additions include Child of Eden, Goat Simulator, and KOF Sky Stage.

Last week, we saw the addition of two Fable games, and before that, the last time Microsoft added new titles to the list was September 21, when four Halo games were made available. The company should be adding them more frequently soon though, with support for the original Xbox coming soon.

Here's what's new today:

Child of Eden ($29.99)

One of the most anticipated games of 2011 for Kinect. Winner of 9 awards at E3 for innovative graphics, music, and gameplay. Child of Eden is the “multi-sensory shooter” that will send players diving into a visual matrix of synchronized music and mind-blowing visuals. It will usher forth yet another landmark game experience from the mind of renowned game designer Tetsuya Mizuguchi.

Goat Simulator ($9.99)

Goat Simulator is the latest in goat simulation technology. You no longer have to fantasize about being a goat; your dreams have finally come true! Goat Simulator is all about causing as much destruction as you possibly can as a goat. Destroy things with style, such as doing a backflip while head-butting a bucket through a window, and you'll earn even more points! Key Features • You can be a goat • Get points for wrecking stuff • We've only eliminated the crash-bugs, everything else is hilarious

KOF Sky Stage ($9.99)

This "Real Martial Arts" shooting game takes to the blue skies as six of your favorite "The King of Fighters" main characters fight to stave off the resurrection of Orochi. Each character retains their own normal shots, as well as ultimate techniques. Each character's special move has 3 three levels at which they can be unleashed, depending on the amount of energy in your ultimate technique gauge. The biggest feature of this game is its brand new fusion of the play systems of the "Shooting" and "Martial Arts" genres.

As always, if you're looking for new games on the cheap, you should be cashing in on Games with Gold, which offers four free games every month to Xbox Live Gold subscribers. You've only got three days left to claim Oxenfree (Xbox One) - which was among last month's offers - and Rayman 3 HD (Xbox 360), which is from this month. You've also got until the end of the month to grab Gone Home: Console Edition (Xbox One).
