More Quantum Break Xbox One Gameplay Leaked

With the game on the horizon, some Youtubers leaked more gameplay footage. We expect the footage to be taken down soon, but it’s worth a look.

Quantum Break will launch on April 5th on Xbox One and Windows 10

Herbalistic3714d ago

Quantum Break is a must have title for Xbox and PC gamers.

I_am_Batman3714d ago

It looks really great. I'm glad it's coming to PC but it sucks that it'll be a Windows Store exclusive. April is gonna be insane though.

ScorpiusX3714d ago

If it help them Popularize the Store and OS , while keep all Profits. Then by all mean they should go for it .

I_am_Batman3714d ago (Edited 3714d ago )

@castillo: Well obviously it makes sense from Microsoft's point of view. They clearly get more profit by selling it on their platform. It just sucks from the gamer's point of view.

Zeref3714d ago

How is this a problem for gamers, its no different than valve putting games on steam.

fallacious3714d ago

Yeah knowing what cancer GFWL was, I can't help but know that it being on windows store is going to be crap. i want them to just put it up on steam too.

4Sh0w3714d ago (Edited 3714d ago )

hmmm, I'd like it if his movement was a bit more fluid but gameplay looks great and the graphics are superb, we'll see how the story plays out. Yep, I'll definitely be adding this to my all digital X1 collection, day 1.

tuglu_pati3714d ago

looks great, PC and Xbox players are in for a treat.

GMR_PR3714d ago

Even with the video compression, it look really good. I already pre-order my copy, cant wait

I_am_Batman3714d ago (Edited 3714d ago )

@shloobmm3 & Zeref: It'll probably be a Windows store app just like Rise of the Tomb Raider. You can't launch the exe so you can't add it to steam. No exclusive fullscreen mode only borderless windowed mode, forced Vsync which especially sucks for Gsync and Freesync users. Also no SLI or Crossfire support and it's kinda annoying to deal with different clients.

badz1493714d ago

Is it just me or the highlight of enemy's death animation is really, REALLY unnecessary?

Kingthrash3603714d ago

Looks great...downgraded, But still looks great.
Unless they've been showing the pc version this for some reason looks less intense graphically. Still a day 1 for me though

UltraNova3713d ago

I love the Max Payne meets Bullet Sponge Bob meets time manipulation vibe!

stoney1013713d ago

For all those saying it doesn't matter it's on the Windows store, you might want to take a look at this...

Petebloodyonion3713d ago

I just don't understand why it suck buying from windows store compare to buying it from Origin for a Ea game, Uplay for a Ubisoft game, Battlenet, etc.

Now on I have seen also the why you should not buy from windows store and again some are valid points when you want to optimise some aspect of the game (Sli, Amd stuff and others) but we are forgetting the opposite side of the spectrum.
Sure modding, macro and others is fun until it's use for cheating and getting unfair advantage.

Something that has been kept at a minimal in console gaming.
Now with cross play coming I'm sure that MS will take every precaution to protect this aspect and in this regard I have no problem with the windows 10 approach )

babadivad3713d ago

What?? It's Windows Store exclusive?? Oi, I'll just get it on X1, I don't have Windows 10 yet.

The visuals on Xbone don't look as good as they have been showing. There is also some jerky animation. Example 1:25. I haven't seen anything that jerky in any other game this gen

butchertroll3714d ago

Movement animations are pretty off. This one particularly :

ShadowKnight3714d ago (Edited 3714d ago )

I saw that. Probably just a glitch.

lvl_headed_gmr3714d ago

Anyone with 1 bubble and calls the Xbox One Xbone holds no credibility in they negative comments about Xbox One or its games.

Mr Pumblechook3714d ago

@lvl_headed_gmr. That's not correct, there are many people who refer to the Xbox One as Xbone who are owners and fans of the console. Check out GAF and you'll see many members use the name and also have a very high gamer score.

The reality is that whilst the Xbone label started of as a pejorative name (started by an Xbox site on the day of the XBO reveal) it has become a popular nickname as it's shorter to say than 'Xbox One.'

Yes there are some people who use Xbone disparagingly, likewise there are those overly loyal to the Microsoft brand who get upset whenever they read it. My opinion is that any gamer who cares more for games more than consoles will be somewhere in between, and see Xbone for what it is, a nickname with a story behind it. No one should loose sleep over it!

URNightmare3714d ago

The game looks overall average.

Computersaysno3714d ago (Edited 3714d ago )

It honestly doesn't look as good (graphically) as I thought it would on Xbox One. A LOT of screen tear. I'm a tad underwhelmed.

I don't know if it's the capture, plus resolution of the effects, just....it's very soft.

I wonder if they have been showing the PC version all this time up until now. Well, at least running on a PC, earlier versions.

Utalkin2me3713d ago

Yeah looks kind of lackluster overall to be honest. Think i will be skipping this on the PC as of right now. I have a couple of really nice TPS games to play in the next couple of months anyways.

MachuchalBrotha3163713d ago

This is an old build of game. She says in spanish coming next april to xbox one and pc. So what they have been showing lately is in fact closer to release version.

skratchy3713d ago

The main character looks jerky as all get out honestly.

AndrewLB3713d ago

They've been showing the PC version. This is the xbone version in this video. Nothing to be surprised about... PC always is going to look better.

wellard3714d ago

That looks stunning, imagine what it looks like without all the streaming compression. I originally planned to get an Xbox One for gears of war 4 but I might very well be getting one a sooner

Dark_Crow3714d ago

Go for it. It's fairly cheap to get one now.

Btw halo multiplayer is freaking awesome too so both this game and that could keep you busy for a while. If you haven't played ori then I'd pick up that game too.

christocolus3714d ago (Edited 3714d ago )

@wellard

If you end up getting an Xbox One and you like fighting and racing games then you definitely need to pick up KI and Forza Horizon 2. Both amazing games.

wellard3713d ago

Thanks for the recommendations. Last gen I played the heck out of forza 3 and to a lesser extent 4. I'll definitely pick up FH2, xboxers have had allot of good things to say about it anyway, Amazon order placed I'll catch you guys online

Rockstar3714d ago

I know I'll be snatching this up so remedy will have my down payment on Alan Wake 2!

Fin_The_Human3714d ago

Wow this game looks amazing!

Is this the XB or PC version?

Can you imagine what would happen if Naughty Dog and Remedy collaborated on a game.

bloodybutcher3713d ago

lol, that was a comment not to the liking for fanboys on both sides xD i thimk it would be good, probably. but we'll never know.
looks interesting. the game, i mean. april will be good. uncharted, dark souls, quantum break, game of thrones.and this month daredevil s.2, wohoo!

Fin_The_Human3714d ago

It kinda of bothers me a little bit that he just walks through the bullets when time is stopped.

skratchy3713d ago

I know, right? Luckily most of my complaints so far are minor. Still want to wait for some reviews first.

ITPython3713d ago

Can't wait to play this on my freshly built PC. Will be interesting to see how well it runs with (hopefully) full DX12 potential on the PC.

So since I am new to all this PC gaming stuff, it's only available on the Windows store? So I can't purchase it and download through steam? Does this also mean I have to install some M$ bloatware on my PC in order to play the game? (much like how you need steam installed to play steam games).

I really don't like the idea of installing more crap to my system, especially if it comes from M$ (the OS and all the other M$ bundled spyware is enough). I'm trying to keep my system as bare-bones as possible to maximize all the CPU/GPU/RAM/SSD for my games, not background programs sucking down resources and possibly causing unstable framerate/performance.

Gonna be a fun month though. Between QB on my PC and UC4/Ratchet & Clank on my PS4, I have all the bases covered. I just need to finish up my backlog of games on both PS4/PC before some of the big ones start dropping, cause I already don't have enough time for 1 or 2 games, let alone 5 if I can't finish off what I have now. I mean crap, I've been playing Fallout 4 pretty daily since its release and I've only done like 2 of the 9 or 10 (or maybe more) main story missions (game is just so dang fun to explore and side-missions are insanely plentiful). I could just bebop around for hours while listening to Spotify and never really get much done. Absolutely amazing game with the most content I've seen in a LONG time (not even GTA5 compares).

SniperControl3713d ago (Edited 3713d ago )

Yep. you are going to need the windows store and the xbox app to play QB, i have deleted both from my PC.

I am going to wait a while before getting QB, i want MS to sort out the no SLI, V-Sync locked on, no FPS counters, no EXE, so no Steam shortcut launch.

http://arstechnica.com/gami...

The game is severely restricted on PC, C'mon MS, fricking sort it out, gutted, really wanted to play this.

All i'am seeing at the moment is gfwl part two.

HAHAHAHAHAHAHA3713d ago

i would say this PCone exclusive seems like a game worth buying

Kal-V33713d ago

MS is advertising on N4G comments now? lol ;)

UncleJerry3713d ago (Edited 3713d ago )

I won't lie...I'm not sitting here shaking in my chair after watching this...but it does look really good. The visuals are solid and take into account that some of the effects are really great and its a pretty impressive looking game. I'll be picking this one up, so I'll save final judgement for when I can experience the game with surround sound turned up on a big screen and immerse myself into the story. If I'm not impressed then, I'll be the first to admit it. I won't extrapolate this one vid to the whole game tho. It still looks unique and fun and I think this is gonna be a great game.

Looks cool, although as an english speaker, I wish there was a way to turn that commentary off. Makes me seriously consider investing in a PC that can run this game.

Dark_Crow3714d ago

Do you listen to reviews without the review commentary?

ArchangelMike3714d ago

I don't listen to Reviews in languages that I don't understand. Was this a Review? I couldn't tell, seeing as I don't understand the language. I just wanted to watch the game and heal the dialogu and sounds form the game.

angelsx3714d ago

Eeeeee get down on the earth.The English is not the only language on the planet.If you don't understand don't listen.

Christopher3714d ago (Edited 3714d ago )

Her accent is actually really nice and soothing. And, it helps she enunciates really well. Enunciation is an issue I have with a lot of Spanish speakers.

tuglu_pati3714d ago (Edited 3714d ago )

Her accent is from Spain that's why it sounds different.

JasonKCK3714d ago (Edited 3714d ago )

Whoever is playing this looks very noobish. They use the powers after the battle and the gameplay style is very awkward.

FITgamer3714d ago

I was thinking the same thing. Pop into cover, then pop out into the open when firing, eating bullets.

BLKxSEPTEMBER3714d ago

Kind of like a similar exclusive on a different platform. ..

ninsigma3714d ago

Game looks sweet. Psyched for its release! Such a big month in April and this is gonna kick it off superbly.

You're still overlooking this Remedy sci-fi shooter, and its 89% cheaper on Steam Deck

Before Control Resonant launches, you need to play Remedy's mind-bending Quantum Break, one of the best third-person shooters around.

15 Xbox Games That Should Make the Multiplatform Jump

While there’s likely already a list behind closed doors, one can still speculate and offer logical suggestions for titles new and old that should find their way into the PlayStation and Switch libraries.

GamerRN776d ago

Single A games and live service games. Those make sense

S2Killinit776d ago

None of it makes sense. But its happening.

Ps5conehead776d ago

That’s up to Microsoft they want return on there investment. From buying up those publishers. That’s what there in business for. And they made a mistake putting day one exclusive on game pass. So now Microsoft wants to profit any way they can.its called buisness . Just like Sony putting games on pc a year are two after ps5 launch.
So if they can make money off PlayStation and Nintendo. They will do that. And I bet soon real soon they will release some aaa exclusives .and I bet one day it will be same day release

TheEroica776d ago

Sony gamers begging for Xbox games.... Who would've thunk it?

BISHOP-BRASIL776d ago

Yeah, because random site off the internet represents all Sony gamers, they have the letter of attorney and all...

S2Killinit776d ago

Lol what a spin. You dizzy?

AsunaYuukiTheFlash775d ago (Edited 775d ago )

We don’t care about shovelwares. Get that junk out of PS5

Friendlygamer776d ago

Some of these seem to be exclusive for lack of enthusiasm of the publisher rather than because of deals. A lot of cool indies skip ps for some reason like katana zero, el paso, elsewhere and gunbrela

S2Killinit776d ago

Even more indies skip xbox. We know that right?

Friendlygamer776d ago

Quality over quantity, Microsoft got some really interesting and curated niche games on their machines, maybe in part because of gamepass

S2Killinit776d ago

Quality and MS are not things you bring up in same sentence.

shinoff2183776d ago (Edited 776d ago )

Alot of indies skip xbox to. It goes round and round. Personally I think your off base on that but no need to have the argument.

Friendlygamer776d ago

Between katana zero, valheim, Battletech, el passo... I don't feel off base. maybe ps got a million of light novel games that will never release on Xbox but like I've said, I'm talking about niche games highlights, the 10%.

  Heck, it's probably thanks to Microsoft that the s.t.a.l.k.e.r games came to console ps included, meanwhile Sony backwards compatibility continues to be extremely anemic.

And I'm sure most ps5 users are happy to ignore these games and just play wathever new 3rd person action game is trending but it's cool that Microsoft gives some love to smaller audiences and software preservation

shinoff2183775d ago

Again your off base just to be snide. All it's showing though is your ignorance.

One light novels wtf is that even. Ps has plenty of pretty damn good indies.

Speaking of indies and ms being responsible. You know F.I.S.T. of course you do alot of you guys just support gamepass. Well here's a history of Sony being responsible for helping indies. Look up the China project from Sony.

Lastly lol your ignorance showing again. Sony has plenty of games. Personally third person is better then first anyway but that's besides the point. Sony gets so many games that xbox doesn't get because yall don't support the games. Jrpgs being a great example. I personally am not into every Sony first party game. Alot of us aren't. On the other side you don't get to eat often so you gobble up everything. Me personally God of War not my cup, etc. For me I'm into jrpgs and ms just can't touch Sony on those. Again because the Xbox base doesn't support it. Devs dont wanna waste their time or money. Hit me up when falcom develops a game over there.

Speaking of third person narrative games. Aren't yall drooling over hellblade 2. The first one was Sony exclusive at one point. Another not my cup game. Showing we don't have to fall in line and agree we love everything Sony puts out. The facts are they sell though unlike elsewhere(not nintendo)

StormSnooper775d ago

You are same person as GamerRN, yes?

Abnor_Mal776d ago

They really think PlayStation fans would want to play Redfall? Pfft.

Personally nothing on that list would be any game I’d want to play.

TwoPicklesGood776d ago

I’d absolutely love Hellblade 2, Palworld, and Quantum Break on ps5 as I’m sure tons of others would too. There’s nothing wrong with wanting games from another console and its sad that people try to act like they aren’t interested in them.

shinoff2183775d ago

While indont agree with the games. I agree with the point. Your not wrong.

DarXyde776d ago

Sunset Overdrive makes very good sense. Palworld might.

Don't know about the others. Hellblade II does make sense given the original launched on PS4 first. Quantum Break was a massive letdown for me. I absolutely hated the whole TV show thing and I don't think anyone should have to relive that on modern hardware.

Now that Remedy owns Control, it’s time to reclaim Quantum Break

Alan Wake 2 studio Remedy Entertainment has reclaimed the rights to Control, and now sci-fi hit Quantum Break deserves the same treatment.

Petebloodyonion792d ago

Totally agree with that especially when Quantum Break has several references to Alan Wake and Alan Wake make allusions to QB.
I do believe that MS and Remedy can work things out and MS has usually been nice to devs and publishers regarding IP.

Obscure_Observer792d ago

They can't "reclaim" what was never theirs.

Petebloodyonion792d ago

I’m sure we can settle for purchase from MS the IP.

Lightning77792d ago

MS is not doin anything with it. Plus they're doing a multiverse of their own so Remedy needs the IP.

If MS wants to have exclusive let it be timed for 6 months then go to other platforms. MS seems to be, let's say, generous with some if their games as of late.

Or have QB2 be multiplat from the jump, put it on GP. Keeping QB2 as an exclusive is kinda weird these days.

Obscure_Observer792d ago (Edited 792d ago )

@Petebloodyonion

"I’m sure we can settle for purchase from MS the IP."

Good luck

@Lightning77

"MS is not doin anything with it."

Japan Studio is dead nd Sony isn´t doing anything with Bloodborne either! Yet I can 100% guarantee that there´s a far bigger demand for a sequel, remake or even a remaster for that game from both PS5 and PC gamers.

That been said, why don´t you ask Sony tol sell the IP to Fromsoftware now that according to rumors, they bought Elden Ring from Bandai?

ZwVw792d ago (Edited 792d ago )

Reclaim? That would mean that they actually owned the ip at one point, which they never did (MS always has). Apples & oranges. Remedy always owned the Control ip (just not the publishing), as they have with Alan Wake.

About as likely as them getting the Max Payne rights from Rockstar.

mastershredder792d ago (Edited 792d ago )

Sending you game to a publisher does not mean they get "rights to own it " unless that was part of the contract (monetary/ strategic reasons). 505 was the publisher they worked with to publish and distribute it, it dos not mean that 505 flat out "owned" anything, clearly they did have a special arrangement that made them open to limit their publishing rights. and so here we are and big whoop

Jingsing792d ago (Edited 792d ago )

Yeah get Quantum Break PS5, only if you put it on disc with all the associated movie material.

isarai792d ago

I mean they got the Alan Wake IP back from MS, so I feel like they could get QB back as well
