The good news goes even further, with Quantum Break being added to PC Game Pass for the first time. Quantum Break was not previously available on PC Game Pass, with the title preceding Microsoft’s “Xbox Play Anywhere” initiative, where every first-party game with an Xbox and Windows PC version is available on both platforms through just one purchase.

Windows Central’s take
I really liked Quantum Break, so I’m glad to see that it wasn’t away for too long. PC Game Pass users can also play it for the first time, which is a neat bonus of Microsoft and Remedy working out the license problems. Hopefully this won’t be an issue again for a long time.

Quantum Break is still a visual showcase and an epic action-adventure game that experiments with some unique concepts. It’s back on Xbox and PC Game Pass, but you can also buy it to own it forever.
