Microsoft and Remedy Entertainment have delayed Quantum Break, originally planned for release on Xbox One in 2015, to 2016.
“We thank our fans for their patience, and want them to know that the team is taking advantage of this opportunity to polish and fine tune the game to create the kind of standout entertainment experience they’ve come to expect from us”, said Sam Lake, Creative Director at Remedy.
The game, “a fusion of a cinematic action game and a top-of-the-line live action show,” puts players in the role of Jack Joyce as he fights to prevent the end of time using time-amplified action gameplay. The live-action show will “uncover the schemes and power play inside Monarch,” the villains who block Jack’s way. Both the game and the show will ship together, and are tied together in ways that the player can affect with their choices.
