Serving as Remedy Entertainment’s first major story-oriented game since Alan Wake in 2010, Microsoft have confirmed that the action-thriller Quantum Break is now available for purchase on the Xbox One and Windows 10 PC platforms.
Quantum Break is one-part video game and one-part live action show – where your decisions as a player can impact both. The game follows the journey of Jack Joyce, who is called in to assist with an experiment which ultimately results in time being fractured, him gaining time-manipulating powers and a major conglomerate hunting him down. The game features some big talent including Shawn Ashmore as Jack Joyce, Aidan Gillen as his nemesis Paul Serene and Dominic Monaghan as Jack’s genius brother William.
As an added bonus, every copy of Quantum Break on the Xbox One at least for now comes with a full-game download for Alan Wake for Alan Wake on the Xbox 360, plus its two add-on packs. Alan Wake is now backwards compatible on the Xbox One.
I am in the middle of my playtesting, and will have a review of Quantum Break live in the next few days.
