Download Xbox 360 Games From the Microsoft Store

There are a limited number of titles available to gamers through the Microsoft Store. While the number of Xbox One games far outweigh the number of Xbox 360 games, you’ll still find a selection of titles to play. To search for these games, you’ll first want to open the Microsoft Store.

Play Xbox 360 Games on PC Using an Emulator

If you can’t find the game you want on the Microsoft Store, you can install an emulator to run Xbox 360 games on your PC.

Hardware Considerations

The Xbox 360 sported impressive technical specifications for its time. To run an emulator, you’ll need a PC with specs and hardware exceeding these parameters:

3.2 GHz CPU4GB DDR3 RAM250GB HD64 Bit X86 Processor

Most modern computers can easily meet this requirement, but if you haven’t upgraded your PC in a while, make sure you can handle an emulator. The 360 had a custom-made GPU, but a Radeon RX 570 or its Nvidia equivalent will be more than enough to handle any emulator you find. 

How to Download and Install the Emulator

Some of the options for emulators have turned out to be scams or malware. Xenia is designed as a research tool and has a strict stance against illegal activity, so make sure any games you play through the emulator are obtained legally.
