Backward compatibility
01
compatibilità all'indietro, retrocompatibilità
the ability of a newer version of a video game console to play games designed for its previous model or generation
Example
The PlayStation 5 has backward compatibility, so I can still play my PlayStation 4 games on it.
Thanks to backward compatibility, you do not need to replace your old games when upgrading to the new console.
