Quantum Break is speeding towards its Xbox One exclusive release on April 5th, 2016, and Remedy Head of PR Thomas Puha took a moment this evening to mention that the studio is putting the finishing lighting touches to the game’s cinematics, expressing his satisfaction for how it looks.
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.
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
Yeah, because random site off the internet represents all Sony gamers, they have the letter of attorney and all...
We don’t care about shovelwares. Get that junk out of PS5
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
Quality over quantity, Microsoft got some really interesting and curated niche games on their machines, maybe in part because of gamepass
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.
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
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)
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.
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.
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.
Alan Wake 2 studio Remedy Entertainment has reclaimed the rights to Control, and now sci-fi hit Quantum Break deserves the same treatment.
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.
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.
@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?
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.
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
Yeah get Quantum Break PS5, only if you put it on disc with all the associated movie material.
I mean they got the Alan Wake IP back from MS, so I feel like they could get QB back as well
Remedy's Director of Communications, Thomas Puha, said in his X post that Alan Wake 2 has been performing perfectly on consoles.
Good stuff.
GPU prices continue to get ridiculous, especially here in Australian. 4080/7900xtx costs nearly 2k while the 4090 is pushing close to 3k.
Given the now the never ending rise of inflations, I'll most likely just play it on my PS5. Even if it doesn't perform perfect, it'll still be running the game a lot better than my PC setup. Still on the good old 1080 Ti...
"AW2 will only support Mesh Shaders, meaning the GTX 1080 Ti and the RX 5700XT are out of the picture despite being more powerful than the RTX 2060"
update! the game will work on a 1070 but u get a message saying it doesn't support all features. It runs at 1080p @16fps on low settings.
The 1080Ti can probably run it. Im able to run any game this gen on a 2060 laptop gpu. Actually playing Lies of P at a constant 60fps...greatly optimized game that one.
Picked up a 4090 for just over £1300 when the very codes were active, only a bit more than a 4080 here so was a no brainer for that price.
Most 4090's are hovering at the $3000 to $3200 price point, they've actually come down in price.
Alan Wake 2 isn't one of them though, it seems closely built around Nvidia's PC technology rather than bolted on later. Everything is pretty much within expectation.
It runs fine on PC. Pretty scalable. It's only when you try and turn everything to maximum, enable path tracing which the consoles don't do at resolutions the consoles don't do are you looking at a highly demanding game that'll live through a couple of GPU generations as a good benchmark.
Ultimately PS5's highest visual mode runs high/medium settings, 1270p natively and 30FPS. No ray tracing.
You're getting a similar experience with something like an RTX3060/2070 Super, albeit they have DLSS which is a lot better at image scaling than FSR on console.
You do need a GPU made since 2018 to run the game at all, but then you need a console made since 2020 too so eh.
But PC scalability wasn't an issue unlike Series S according to Thomas Puha
“Series S, the CPU is pretty much the same as on Series X,” Puha said. “But the GPU is an issue. It really is. And then, having less memory is a pretty big problem. And we often get, ‘okay, you make PC games, surely you know how to scale.’ Well, memory is not a problem on PC. It really isn’t. And that’s one of the struggles when you talk about resolution and framerate."
"It’s a lot easier to scale on the PC because of memory, and it’s not like there’s one super PC and one weaker PC."

Well I guess it must be Xbox's fault
Well perhaps you could explain to me then since this dev went on record about the Serie S GPU memory being quite a problem but they still managed to get that 30 fps/1080 visual on Series S.
Yet here we are with a tweet saying on PC it's gonna run as well as it can (that's reassuring) with PC configs that destroy Serie X and PS5...
yea of course their PR team will say that. do you really expect them to say anything bad about their own game?
Reading that title like...
"Quantum Break’s Cinematics Are “F***ing Stunning;” Game Is “Gorgeous”"
Oh...OH YEAH....HOLY SH-
"According to Remedy’s PR Head"
Ah...........well that's cool
This game is high on my list for next year, along with Mass Effect: Andromeda and Gears 4. If Titanfall 2 comes out next Christmas, I'll be getting that also.
