It’s important to note that while the games will no longer be available for purchase on the Xbox 360, they will, however, still be available on Microsoft’s latest consoles, the Xbox One and the Series X/S, and their respective stores.

Considering that most of these titles have already received their next-gen ports, remasters as well as updates, backward compatibility won't be an issue.

Unfortunately, this is bad news for those who still own a 360 and might be planning to try these games out in the future. The closing of stores on older platforms has been in vogue ever since the Nintendo Wii Shop Channel was closed in 2019, which was soon followed by the closing of the Wii U and 3DS marketplaces. It’s unsurprising that it’s now Microsoft's turn to close shop for one of their oldest platforms.
