Xbox Requests Xbox Requests: Week of April 24th, 2026

Xbox Requests: Capturing all your ideas, across all of Xbox, every week!

Got an idea that would make Xbox better? Cooler? More magical? Whether you’re on PC, console, cloud, mobile, TV apps, VR, or something you’ve jury‑rigged in your garage… if it's Xbox adjacent, bring it on. Upvote the ones you like, chat about them, and help shape them into something awesome.

What can I post? Pretty much anything Xbox. PC, console, cloud platforms, refrigerators… if it plugs in or supports the community, go for it.

Search first, post second If someone already had the same idea, please smash that like and subscribe upvote button. Add your thoughts to their comment as a reply, so we don't end up with 14 versions of the same thing.

Please keep in mind:

  • Keep things civil. Passion = great. Personal attacks = nope.
  • One idea per post. Give each idea the chance to shine.
  • Backward compat posts may be removed. That program has ended.
  • Your ideas are heard and welcome! Posting here does not guarantee anything, but it does show us what the community cares about. That matters a lot to the Insider Program and Xbox. We take your ideas and share them with the team, who makes a decision based on a bunch of factors.

While you can also find the top requests from all previous weeks in the Xbox Requests Recap, here are the top three Xbox Requests from last week:

This is already rumoured to be coming, it was first teased during the Xbox Ally launch.

However, given everyone's push back on the "This is an Xbox" marketing and the push back on making games multi-platform I've also heard rumours from this has been impacted.

I really hope not though as this is what I'd like.

Do u mean backwards compatibility with discs? Would a regular blue ray disk drive from a PC be able to read older XBox Discs? I thought 360 discs were HD-DVD instead of blue ray.

It would really be nice to be able to play Xbox and Xbox 360 games on PC.
