If you’ve ever wanted to send backwards compatible games as gifts, this list would surely have been helpful.
However, some original Xbox games may be sent as gifts. Curious, to say the least. I don’t know if it’s possible because those old games don’t have the same limitation as Xbox 360 games, but it sure is rare.
The list has not changed since the program closed
If you want to know what are these games that you can gift today, here is a list. It’s not the most comprehensive in the world and only covers 15 games, but hey, less is a stone.

In August 2022, we heard the rumor again that Microsoft might be bringing back backwards compatible games, but the truth is, it was just that, a rumor. It doesn’t seem like there are any more plans to bring games from the past to the current Xbox.
