Eager for the release of Xbox One exclusive Quantum Break? You'll be waiting awhile.
Microsoft Studios on Thursday announced that the game, originally scheduled to launch sometime this year, has been pushed back until 2016.
"We've got the strongest games lineup in Xbox history right now, with 2015 blockbuster exclusives like Halo 5: Guardians, Rise of the Tomb Raider, Fable Legends, and Forza Motorsport 6, and more we'll announce in the coming months," Shannon Loftis, head of publishing for Microsoft Studios, said in a statement. "With so many games launching this year, moving Quantum Break to 2016 extends our incredible portfolio into next year with a monster new IP."
The action-adventure title is being developed by Max Payne and Alan Wake creator Remedy Entertainment. Microsoft said Quantum Break fuses "an intense action game with top-of-the-line live action elements into one revolutionary entertainment adventure."
Sam Lake, creative director at Remedy said his team is using the delay to improve the game.
"We're really proud to be part of the incredible Xbox One line-up," Lake said. "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."
