As part of their 25th anniversary festivities, Xbox have revealed that they are giving PC players even more opportunities to revisit their gaming history, with 25 original Xbox titles now available on PC. This announcement sees Xbox expand on its backwards compatibility offering, with 21 additional games being added, bringing the total on offer to 25.

Among the games joining the lineup are some familiar classics, including Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic and The Elder Scrolls III: Morrowind. Both titles played an important role in establishing the original Xbox as a destination for ambitious RPGs, and their addition should provide a solid dose of nostalgia for fans.

The expanded selection of games isn’t the only addition being introduced as part of Xbox’s celebrations. The team has also announced that achievements are being added to more original Xbox titles, giving fans a new reason to revisit some of their favourite classics. Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic is one such game, allowing players to earn Xbox achievements whilst returning to BioWare’s classic RPG.
