Xbox reportedly reviving 16 classic games on PC with new re-releases including Elder Scrolls and TimeSplitters

A load of classic games from the early Xbox era are reportedly being revived on PC, including beloved games like TimeSplitters and The Elder Scrolls III: Morrowind.

According to Reddit user esketitethan, 16 games from the classic Xbox library are being re-released as PC ports on the Microsoft Store.

These games appeared on the Microsoft Store backend, with Windows package records similar to those of the original Xbox titles that were released on PC earlier this year.

This suggests that the next wave of original Xbox games to be released on PC is coming soon, and if they're already appearing on the backend, this could suggest an announcement potentially coming as soon as this week for Xbox's 25th anniversary on November 15.

The full list of games includes the likes of many classic games that were console-exclusive like Star Wars: Episode III - Revenge of the Sith, TimeSplitters: Future Perfect, and Grabbed by the Ghoulies.

Bizarrely, it also includes games that already have PC ports like The Elder Scrolls III: Morrowind and Star Wars Battlefront. However, these games will presumably bring over some enhanced features such as better compatibility with modern PCs and improved controller support. In the case of some of them, although they may already be on PC, they're not available to purchase on modern platforms like Steam or GOG.

These titles will allegedly join the four original Xbox games that came to PC earlier, which were Blinx: The Time Sweeper, Conker: Live and Reloaded, Crimson Skies: High Road to Revenge, and Fuzion Frenzy. These games were re-released using a custom emulator that allows them to be played on PC with some notable improvements to resolution and graphical quality.

As always, take information like this as simple speculation and rumour until it's confirmed by Microsoft and Xbox.

There are also rumours that point to Xbox 360 games being included here in the future too, but Microsoft has not confirmed a timeline on this yet.
