No longer a rumor, Quantum Break is coming to Xbox One and PC on April 5 and more

By Keith MitchellFebruary 11, 2016

Originally reported as a rumor, It was speculated that Microsoft’s upcoming title, Quantum Break, would be coming out for both Xbox One and PC. Well, it’s not longer a rumor as Microsoft has just released a press release stating that it is indeed true. And there’s more apparently as Alan Wake will also be included with the Xbox One release of Quantum Break, as well as the title being a cross-buy deal, meaning if you pre-order the Xbox One version, you’ll get the Windows 10 version for free.

More details below:

With less than two months away until the highly anticipated launch of Quantum Break, Remedy Entertainment and Microsoft Studios kicked things into high gear with a number of huge announcements about the upcoming cinematic action blockbuster. The most noteworthy? Quantum Break will also be launching on Windows 10 on April 5…and will be available at no additional cost for those who digitally pre-order the game on Xbox One*.

Alan Wake Included with Quantum Break for Xbox One; American Nightmare Available with Pre-Order 

Two of Remedy Entertainment’s most popular and critically-acclaimed classics – Alan Wake and Alan Wake’s American Nightmare – are now part of the Quantum Break experience. Every copy of Quantum Break for Xbox One will come with a full-game download for Alan Wake for Xbox 360, plus its two add-on packs, The Signal and The Writer, playable on Xbox One via Backward Compatibility. Fans who pre-order Quantum Break for Xbox One at participating retailers or through the Xbox Store will also receive a full-game download of Alan Wake’s American Nightmare for Xbox 360.
