It was bound to happen eventually, but Microsoft’s approach to the Xbox ecosystem forced our hand a little bit. The Polygon Essentials lists for Xbox One and Xbox Series X (and Xbox Series S) consoles will now be brought together into one master list for the entire platform.
This switch was really the only way to move forward. Xbox Series X can play all Xbox One games — at least for now — and true Xbox Series X exclusives are rare. If you can play almost all these games on both systems, who needs two lists?
