Microsoft released 14 Xbox 360 games with the Backward Compatibility feature for the month of December.

The Xbox One Backward Compatibility feature allows gamers to play their favorite Xbox 360 titles on the new Xbox One console. Since its release, new Xbox 360 games have been added every month to the growing list of backward-compatible games.

Head of Xbox, Phil Spencer, tweeted last week that there are now more than 300 backward-compatible titles to check out on the Xbox One.

Before 2016 ends, Microsoft made sure that the year ends well for their Xbox gamers by releasing 14 titles with updated Backward Compatibility in the month of December. Among these 14 games, six were only introduced recently as new Xbox One backward-compatible.

According to Xbox Live's director of programming, Major Nelson, these games are "Bully Scholarship Ed.," "Catherine," "Planets Under Attack," "Raskulls," and "Skydive: Proximity Flight." "CLANNAD" is among the six titles, but it is only available in Japan.

"Bully Scholarship Ed." Is an open world adventure video game from Rockstar that follows the story of teen rebel Jimmy Hopkins and his mission to rise up the ranks among bullies, nerds, jocks, and much more, within the fictional town of Bullworth.

"Catherine" is a puzzle adventure game where the protagonist is a man named Vincent Brooks, who is struggling with odd nightmares because his girlfriend, Katherine, opened up about pushing their relationship towards marriage. The puzzles that Vincent must solve are from his nightmares, where he has to climb blocks filled with traps in order to get to the top.

"Planets Under Attack" is an adventure strategy game from Targem Games that focuses on completing missions in order to conquer multiple planetary systems.

"Raskulls" is an action video game created by Microsoft Game Studios that features the gameplay mechanic of moving through platform-based levels similar to those in "Super Mario World."

Meanwhile, "Skydive: Proximity Flight" is a game where players will fly through the air with the use of a skydiving suit. The gamer will guide the skydiver through mountains and forests, and they can even make their in-game character perform tricks while in flight.
