PSA: Some Versions Of The Same Game Aren't Compatible With Xbox Disc To Digital
Pure Xbox • • technology
Key Points:
- The Xbox Disc to Digital feature, currently rolling out to Xbox Insiders, shows that some games only work with specific physical disc variants, with Battlefield 4 and Call of Duty: Ghosts cited as examples.
- Early Xbox One generation games, especially those from 2013 and 2014, may lack a per-disc identifier, causing compatibility issues with the Disc to Digital service for older disc versions.
- Variability in compatibility is also seen with games like Forza Horizon 3 (2016), which reportedly works for some users but not others, indicating inconsistent support across different disc variants.
- The community, led by XCT.live, is compiling a list of "variant-dependent" titles to help users identify which discs work with the service, and Xbox plans to add more titles to the program in the coming weeks or months.
- Users are advised to keep their physical discs and retry the Disc to Digital feature later, as improvements may resolve current variant-related issues over time.
