Crackdown 3 has been officially announced for the PC, coming in 2017

And here is another Xbox One exclusive game that finds its way to our platform. Microsoft and Reagent Games announced today that Crackdown 3 will be coming to the PC in 2017. Yeap, it appears that Microsoft stayed to true to its word, and that all of its future exclusive games are coming simultaneously on both Xbox One and PC.

As Dave Jones, Creative Director at Reagent Games, said:

“Today, we are excited to confirm that Crackdown 3 will be available for both Xbox One and Windows 10 PCs, and will be an Xbox Play Anywhere title so you can buy one and play across either device.”

Crackdown 3 is described as a game built for the future with a multiplayer experience that will redefine what it feels like to play games.

“Our top priority is to give gamers an experience they have never seen before at a scale never thought possible, and sticking to our original timeline would have compromised that goal.”

  1. How many of you are not going to change your mind about the Windows 10 Store now with all these XB1 games? UMP not bothering people now all the games are coming? :p

    1. Me. They announced a bunch of cross-play titles, congrats, good for them.

      Unfortunately most of them aren’t even interesting to me, so yeah.

      1. If its either W10 store or NO games at all and having to a buy a stupid console? Yea. Id take the store over the other option.

        Really, MS will only give us those games if its thru the store. No store= no games.

        And If you aint interested in those, why do you complain then?

          1. Same, but i also would rather not buy a console to play 1 or 2 games. This is the best option i got, and it beats the alternative..

          2. I stand by that myself, I;d rather not plonk down a big chunk of cash for just 1-2 games at lower quality and paying for online.

            I can live without a few games, it;s those guys that can’t once the money dries up.

        1. Come on, saw this a mile away. Microsoft are not the old Microsoft where they made games for PC, this is about XBox and nothing more because XB1 is flopping. If XB1 was destroying PS4 then I’m pretty sure we would get chick bones of games like with the XBox 360.

        1. Give it some time….. I just realized, this level of investing can’t be sustained for long, not without real returns, not just minor numbers from the Windows 10 Store.

          1. Scorpio? Still a ways out, & we don’t even know the Neo’s final specs yet.

            Somehow I doubt their self-proclaimed “The Most Powerful Console Ever” is going to hold that title for very long.

          2. Neo and Scorpio are already out of date, RX 480 outdated them, you could say 1070 did as well but it’s hardly a value GPU.

          3. Yeah, but like always, everything will depend on 3 major factors; launch date & window (who releases first, & time between the two releases – X360 launched a whole year ahead of the PS3, gave it a hell of an edge), hardware & software launch line-ups (to a lesser extent, as many don’t care which is strong, just which has better games, but others do, so yeah) & of course, pricing. The XBONE priced itself $100 higher than the PS4, basically shooting itself in the foot from the get-go.

            The Xbox “Scorpio” not only has to beat the PS4 Neo, but it also has to be stronger (numbers will count this time, I think), have a better line-up (empty out them pockets, Micro$oft), & better priced. They can’t afford to put it at $50 more than the PS4 Neo, even.

            Historically, the PlayStation has been stronger in both the last two launches, Microsoft’s line-up is still flimsy compared to Sony’s endless array of available Remasters, & most importantly, they’re greedy pr*cks who’re most definitely going to try & do something monumentally stupid, because Microsoft, which will in turn damage them further.

          4. lol 1070 is the best bang for the buck once founders editions are gone and other manufacturers put there models out. leaked benchs show 480 needs serious OC to match 1070 stock. 1070 needs small OC to match 1080 stock.

    2. Me, even wanting to play some of them.

      If there’s anything I’ve learned with all my pirating years it is to not bother.
      Not available? Eh, moving on.

      WStore is a awful store, UWP it’s way too restrictive and even with being adept of the MS OS (which I kinda have to, since nobody cares to support anything more) I still despise they way MS does things.

      1. This, I’ve learned that if I can’t buy the game and play it the way I want to then I simply move onto something else and give my money to those who don’t tell me to jump through their hoops, all while giving me games I want and having mod support.

      2. “Not available? Eh, moving on”
        Yeah i’m with this, if it’s not available on my OS then it’s not even exist.

    3. i told you 100 time uwp is the future of pc gaming. win 10,dx12, uwp thats how its going to be for now on.

    4. The issues I have with the windows store are:

      1) There are no alternatives to buy the games, with steam I can buy from any digital store and hunt for deals… Windows store does not allow me to do this.

      2) The store is full of mobile crap, and looks fugly.

    5. Same, I’d actually care if they sold on Steam and the Windows store but also sold to Windows 7-8 users, that was we all have choices.

    6. I really don’t care about any of those games, i care about forza h3 a little but not going to pay even a penny for it unless it works on win7.

    1. Windows 10 is future of “Windows PC” – single OS, no multiple versions, all games with cross buy between Xbox and PC. Buy once, play on PC or Xbox with shared save. W10 FTW. And its free upgrade.

      1. Yeah, yeah, yeah, you’re a drone, we know, we know.

        Thank you for your delightfully repetitive input.

          1. Not “vulkan games” but “vulkan game” – its only one game. Vulkan is like OpenGL – only ID Software will use this API

          2. Keep telling yourself that, darling.

            It’ll make my eventual inevitable victory all the sweeter.

          3. Nope, thought it was a hilarious joke that would never get anywhere, because Nvidia was never going to pick it up, just like AMD never picked up PhysX, CUDA, etc.

            Once they handed it over to the Khronos Group, that was the first time it ever had a real chance of surviving, & taking off.

            “enjoy all 4 games that will ever use it.” Enjoy all the games Microsoft can you buy, with its unsustainable investments that will only continue to yield (at best) mediocre incomes. I wonder how long it’ll be before Microsoft’s Suits put an end to the practice.

            After all, who invests vast sums of money, only to be satisfied with sh*tty returns?

            P.S. Upvoting yourself……. LOL’d.

        1. Don’t like DX12 games… don’t play it. Its simple 🙂

          O like that all new UWP games will be “Xbox Anywhere” – single buy between PC and Xbox. UWP FTW!

          1. “All”…. Yeah – Call me when Halo MCC hits PC, then we can start talking about “all.”

          2. Probably next year with Halo 6 on PC (UWP, cross buy between PC and Xbox Scorpio)

    1. If Sony wants to win they must add all own exclusive games to PC with shared buy. Shtared buy between PC and console should be a standard. Cross buy PC + X1 FTW

    2. HAHAHAHAHHA, dream on buddy, the PS4 is doing too well, XB1 isn’t ,that’s pretty much why all their exclusives are coming to PC.

    3. all those ps vr exclusives they announce, god of war, horizon, and all other ps exclusives arent on pc.

    1. Yeah but trolls just feed on whatever goes their way, they only ever give up out of boredom or being banned.

  2. we do talk when we have something to say (or when we f’ up things in our articles, lol). We don’t take sides however. This is YOUR section. We won’t influence anyone’s opinion or force our own opinion to anyone. And we won’t silence anyone. You are free to discuss.

    1. letting the section turn into a no mans land isn’t really an ideal place to discuss, Dtoid mods don’t really pick sides either and they manage to eject the trolls who visit the site just to constantly rub stuff in people’s faces.

      1. So we should also ban Gene for his “Hvd is crying so badly…” comment? Because from a specific point of view, he can be also considered a troll in this case 😉

        It’s quite easy to ban people for having different opinions. And let’s face it: some people had, have and will have different opinions. We’ve always said that we won’t silence anyone, no matter what. So that’s precisely what we’re doing. And let’s be honest; you guys can defend yourselves (or you can ignore him instead of feeding him and making him proud for driving you crazy).

        1. ” he can be also considered a troll in this case ;)”

          You sound like you knew from the start but didn’t want to do anything until events unfolded to this point. Not really the best moderation decision either mind you.

          everything is an opinion, but just saying it’s an opinion and thus non bannable is a moot excuse to not intervene.

          Yes we can defend ourselves but it doesn’t and won’t stop me from applauding mods that do step in and take action to make the community a better place over people who sit there and do nothing because they think it’s the best decision hands down over everything else in the suggestion box.
