Eight of the recently announced backwards compatible OG (original) Xbox video games will be going live on Xbox One consoles within the next 24 hours while the other 11 are due to launch 10 days later on April 26th.

The OG Xbox video games launching today on April 17th are Blinx: The Time Sweeper, Breakdown, Conker: Live & Reloaded, The Elder Scrolls III: Morrowind, Hunter: The Reckoning, Jade Empire, Panzer Dragoon Orta, and SSX 3.

The 11 OG Xbox titles coming to the Xbox One on April 26th are Destroy All Humans!, Full Spectrum Warrior, Mercenaries: Playground of Destruction, MX Unleashed, Panzer Elite Action: Fields of Glory, Star Wars Battlefront, Star Wars Battlefront II, Star Wars Jedi Knight: Jedi Academy, Star Wars Jedi Starfighter, Star Wars Knights of the Old Republic II: The Sith Lords, and Star Wars Republic Commando.
