Unlisted Xbox 360 games are “coming soon” in some regions
On November 2, X user @JBishie posted a screenshot of the Portuguese Microsoft Store. The image shows a total of 17 Xbox 360 games and one Xbox original title, all with the label “Em Breve” underneath the key art, which translates to “Coming Soon” in English. This likely means that the Xbox 360 title will be coming to the Microsoft Store in the near future.

For the same game Left 4 Dead 1 and 2 and Batman: Arkham OriginsThose who own the original disc will be able to play it on newer Xbox hardware, but those without a physical copy will have no way to purchase it or play it digitally.
It's currently unclear why these specific games are tagged “Coming Soon” in certain regions. In replies to @JBishie's post, some theorized that the tag's appearance was merely a product of a technical glitch, perhaps due to backend issues following the Xbox 360 store closure in July 2024.

On November 22, 2025, Xbox 360 turns 25 years old. It's unlikely, but it's also unlikely that a delisted Xbox 360 game will be part of a large anniversary celebration. For example, Microsoft could celebrate the Xbox 360's 25th birthday by adding beloved 360 titles to Xbox Game Pass Ultimate.
