A user on Reddit has pointed out that the logos on Saint’s Row 2 and Saints Row The Third appear to have been updated and now feature the Deep silver logo instead of the THQ and Volition logo. Could this be an indication that the games will arrive on Xbox One through backwards compatibility?

Saints Row was originally developed by Volition and published by THQ. After THQ went bankrupt and was dissolved in January 2013, Saints Row developer Volition moved to Koch Media’s label Deep Silver. Yet the THQ label and Volition logo remained on the box art on the Xbox online store so what has prompted them to update it now? Especially when the original Saints Row box art remains unchanged.

It would make sense if they updated it anticipation of them moving to the Backwards Compatibility program, but this is just speculation and rumor and shouldn’t be taken as fact… yet.
