Obi-Wan for Xbox backwards compatibility

The Issue

With the success of the Disney+ series Obi-Wan Kenobi, I think that it would be a good time to bring back a forgotten early title for the Original Xbox to the Xbox One and Series X/S.

Star Wars: Obi-Wan (2001) is an interesting early attempt by LucasArts to add more sophistication to lightsaber combat, its usage of the controller analog stick to swing your lightsaber made for a unique take on a Star Wars based hack-and-slash.

In addition, it has never been made backward compatible on any of the subsequent Xbox consoles, leaving it stuck on the Original.

Therefore, we ask Microsoft to please think about adding this classic game via backward compatibility.
