Call of Duty Does Not Figure in Xbox One Backwards Compatibility List
Meanwhile, one game that has not been mentioned in the Xbox One backwards compatibility list are the Call of Duty games. None of the Call of Duty games have been included in the list.
It is not that the games in the series have not been requested by fans, in fact, Black Ops 2 was one of the most requested title.
When fans asked Aaron Greenberg, marketing head at Microsoft he suggested them to ask Activision instead.
