Quantum Break – Steam version slightly delayed, now planned for a September 29th release


THQ Nordic announced today that both the retail and the Steam versions of Quantum Break have been delayed to September 29th. The game was meant to be released on September 14th, however THQ Nordic needed some additional time for mastering and manufacturing the Quantum Break – Timeless Collector’s Edition.

As a result of that, THQ Nordic moved the game’s release to September 29th.

The Steam version of Quantum Break will support both DX11 and older operating systems (Windows 7, Windows 8 and Windows 8.1).

“Quantum Break is part hard-hitting video game, part thrilling live action show featuring an interesting cast, including Shawn Ashmore as the hero Jack Joyce, Aiden Gillen as his nemesis Paul Serene, and Dominic Monaghan as Jack’s genius brother William.

Quantum Break is a storydriven third-person action game, in which your choices will affect the outcome of the fast-paced fusion between game and show.”

For what is worth, Remedy originally stated that the Win10 version of Quantum Break would not receive any additional patches. The company, however, later claimed that the Win10 version would be updated in order to be up to date with the Steam version.

Remedy’s Head of Communications, Thomas Puha, has not replied yet on our question whether the Win10 version will be patched in order to support DX11.
