    I understand that Sector3 and RaceRoom are separate legal entities from SimBin and Atari but are there any plans to enable Race Pro to function on the Xbox One via Backwards Compatibility?

    Interesting question. The way I understand it xbox has to work with the devs to make the games compatible and the users can vote for the games they'd like to be added.

    The problem I'm seeing is that as you already mentioned SimBin doesn't exist anymore. While Sector 3 provides support/updates for older titles like Race 07 and those games are still being sold (for PC at least), I'm not sure if the same applies for Race Pro.

    Only a dev could answer this, but unless there is widespread popular demand and loads of people ask for it, my guess is that chances are rather slim.
    Would be glad to be wrong on this though.
