Microsoft has just announced the latest bundle for the Xbox One console, this time featuring the latest exclusive title, Quantum Break.
In addition to that, Microsoft has confirmed that also leaked news that buying Quantum Break on Xbox One will net you backwards compatible copies of Alan Wake and its DLC – The Signal and The Writer. The company is now trying to incentivize console gamers – and perhaps get on their good side by changing its mind about the exclusivity part – by throwing in a free PC copy of Quantum Break for anyone who pre-orders the digital version for the Xbox One. Quantum Break is full of the vivid storytelling, rich characters and dramatic twists Remedy Entertainment are renowned for.
New trailer as well.
Remedy, the developer behind the upcoming Quantum Break, promised news on its long-awaited action game today. It’s pretty neat to watch if you have the time. Together, the game and the show deliver a holistic entertainment experience, possible only on Xbox One. However the wait is nearly up. The ratings board quickly and quietly removed any mention of the game’s PC version from its website, but not before the Internet took a screenshot to prove it was once up there. So set your time machines for early April. Are you excited about Quantum Break finally getting a firm release date?
Additionally, the added feature of cross-save is something Microsoft should be doing with every major release on the platforms, especially since Windows 10 and Xbox One are essentially linked thanks to Xbox Live and the shared profile across both platforms. Monaghan also starred in Lost, while Ashore can now be seen in US TV series the Following. After an fantastic, in-depth showing at Gamescom 2015, Quantum Break became a sure system seller. Jack can’t give around, but can slow down time around him to give him the edge in combat. The pre-order bonus will be redeemable through the Windows Store for a limited time and must be entered by April 4. We try to make them feel like two sides of the same coin – hopefully, that’s something the audience finds interesting and engaging. It joins the likes of “Red Dead Redemption“, “Tekken Tag Tournament 2“, and “Castlevania: Symphony of the Night“, all making their way to the Xbox One. The clip shown above picks up where the original gameplay demo left off, leaving Jack to navigate a collapsing bridge as a cargo freighter ploughs into it. According to Remedy, they recouped the cost of Alan Wake’s PC development and marketing within the first 48 hours of being available on Steam.
The big news here is the fact that people get a free second copy of the game, and while that might seem a bit useless given most will be happy with a single platform, bear this in mind: saved games will be shared between both versions. Then they’ll show up in your game list when they’re ready. This likely has less to do with Microsoft and more with the publishers of the games, as Microsoft needs their permission to move forward.
