Xbox One fans were treated today to more footage of the most anticipated Xbox One exclusive to release in the first half of this year: Quantum Break. The game looks phenomenal, gamers are getting Alan Wake and it’s DLC bundled with the pre-order, pre-ordering on the Xbox One also gives a free copy of the game on Windows 10, and the previews sound good. So, what’s the problem? Well, Microsoft dropped the bomb that Quantum Break is also coming to Windows 10.
The gaming community has since focused it’s attention on this announcement, which is a shame because the game itself should be the focus of the articles today as it truly does look fantastic. Alas, it was the controversial announcement of Quantum Break going to the PC that stole the headlines today. The Xbox community in particular has been very polarized over this announcement with what seems to be an almost even split of gamers who either are against this move or those who are welcome to it. This announcement didn’t come as much of a surprise to many as this seems to be a trend of Microsoft’s new vision of unifying the Xbox and Windows platforms. It’s a difficult situation: Xbox One isn’t as successful as the competition and there’s a lot of revenue to be made from PC sales so the decision of ever closer unity between the two platforms is both a good and a bad thing.
Personally, I see no problem with the unification of the two platforms since Microsoft owns the Xbox platform and might as well own the PC too since their Windows OS is on the vast majority of PC’s out there. While Xbox will always have a fanbase due to the simple fact that many gamers just enjoy the ease and simplicity of a closed system console, there are fears that by putting games that were previously announced as Xbox One exclusives on Windows 10, there’s a question over whether there is enough incentive left going forward for gamers who aren’t already fans of the Xbox platform to pick up an Xbox One because their exclusives can be picked up on PC so it could hurt the longevity of the console’s success. Let’s remember that PC hardware is still arguably fairly more expensive than consoles which will mean it’ll be a long time before consoles become obsolete.
In their Xbox Wire post about Xbox’s outlook for 2016, Xbox gave the following list of major games for 2016:
- Gears of War 4 (Xbox One) – Multiplayer Beta in Spring 2016/Launch in Fall 2016
- Quantum Break (Xbox One) – April 5, 2016
- Halo Wars 2 (Xbox One & Windows 10) – Fall 2016
- Crackdown 3 (Xbox One) – Multiplayer in Summer 2016
- Fable Legends Open Beta (Xbox One & Windows 10) – Spring 2016
- ReCore (Xbox One & Windows 10) – 2016
- Sea of Thieves (Xbox One & Windows 10) – 2016
- Gigantic (Xbox One & Windows 10) – 2016
- Killer Instinct: Season 3 (Xbox One & Windows 10) – March 2016
- Gears of War: Ultimate Edition (Windows 10) – Spring 2016
- Ori and the Blind Forest: Definitive Edition (Xbox One & Windows 10) – Spring 2016
- Cobalt (Xbox One, Xbox 360 & Steam) – Feb. 2, 2016
As you can see the only games that remain Xbox One exclusives today are Gears of War 4 and Crackdown 3. However, Gamespot also made a slip up today that Gears of War 4, arguably Microsoft’s biggest Xbox One exclusive for 2016, will be releasing on Windows 10 also. It’s unsure whether this was just a mistake or if Gamespot were letting slip of an announcement that might be coming at a later date. This begs the question whether or not the Xbox One console will have any true AAA exclusives by the end of 2016.
It’s important to note also that the benefits of bringing new IP to both Xbox One and Windows 10 far outweigh the negatives of doing so as very simply, bringing a new IP to both Xbox One and Windows 10 equals more sales which equals more revenue which equals better odds of receiving a sequel for said game. So, seeing a game like Quantum Break or a game like Sea of Thieves go to PC I believe many gamers don’t see too much of a problem with this due to the fact that the benefits do outweigh the negatives for the Xbox One console. However, games like Halo and Gears of War have become core system sellers for the Xbox console and were they to be announced for Windows 10 also it does leave the problem that many gamers who aren’t traditionally Xbox gamers might have less incentive to pick up an Xbox console, which could spell problems for the Xbox One console as a part of Microsoft’s vision because if Xbox sales get even poorer, Microsoft could possibly shift their focus more to PC which would be to the detriment of loyal, hardcore Xbox fans.
It’s inevitable that the new leadership of Xbox under Phil Spencer and Satya Nadella have a more open thinking vision of unifying the Xbox One and PC and that their job is too deliver on their vision and Xbox One exclusives going to the PC has both it’s benefits and it’s drawbacks and the best thing that Microsoft could do now is offer more transparency on their vision and just let Xbox One gamers know the details of their vision and where the Xbox console is heading in Microsoft’s future plans. It’s probably the lack of transparency and the fact that Microsoft waited this long before announcing the Windows 10 version of Quantum Break that lead to the controversy that ensued today as it’s a fair criticism of the way that today’s announcement unfolded due to the fact that the Xbox team had clarified previously that Quantum Break was an Xbox One exclusive.
If you look at the competition, Sony has a perception of being very console focused and the PS4 being the centre of everything that they do in gaming. Their exclusives, even their new IP’s like Bloodborne and The Order: 1886 release exclusively on the PS4 which means quite simply that if you want to play these games, you have to own a PS4. Whether this is part of the reason for their huge success this generation or not is debatable but it’s clear that Sony’s commitment to their console and console gamers has given them a better perception since the beginning of this console generation.
In closing, there’s been a lot of over-reacting in the gaming community today over the announcement of Quantum Break going to PC and the controversy has been aplenty. The future may still be a little foggy over the Xbox One and it’s exclusives but we must remember that, for the most part, there seems to be more benefits of games being released exclusively on both Xbox One and PC rather than Xbox One alone as Xbox One isn’t the hottest console this generation and there’s much more revenue to be had from releasing on both platforms. However, it’s a little bit less clear on games like Gears of War 4 and Xbox’s main AAA exclusives such as Halo and Forza too since these games serve as big incentives for gamers who aren’t already invested in the Xbox to pick up an Xbox One but aside from these games, it’s also important for Xbox to expand their portfolio with more variety and if releasing games on both Xbox One and PC helps Microsoft to make more quality new IP’s then it doesn’t sound too bad to me.
How do you feel about Xbox One exclusives going to Windows 10? Do you think it’s a good thing or a bad thing? Get involved in the discussion by dopping a comment and letting us know your thoughts.

im trying to think of more AAA ps4 games but the rest look like rubbish.
Looks like a third straight year won by microsoft this is really getting embarassing on sony’s behalf
TristanPR77
1) cherry picking games for making a list is very stupid. Is very obvious that’s not the full list of PS4 exclusive games but looks like you like lying to yourself.
2) xbox doesn’t have any true exclusives anymore. They are on another platform, which is call multiplatform.
Also, the same thing was said last holidays with the “best xbox game line up in history” and yet, the PS4 won all the holidays lol.
3) Dark souls 3 being a better version of Bloodborne wow. You have to be a psych blind fanboy to say something like that.
4) a third year won by Microsoft? Ok, what kind of drug are you using? You don’t even seem to be living in this dimension.
JoinTheRest
Come on dude stop living in the denial wow the whole fanbase Is in denial it’s hilarious. Go watch dark souls it looks EXACTLY like Bloodborne that’s why people called bb a dark souls clone. And yes those games are console exclusive dude console gamers and pc gamers are two different things. Microsoft owns windows which is what you need to play their games which makes them Microsoft exclusive. Sony still doesnt have more then one decent game and that decent game is coming to xbox next month. That makes the ps4 library literally unexistant. Ps4 won what? Sales? Lmfao thanks shareholders I’ll care when I buy some shares
andy
Forza 6 and Halo 5 won the year for Xbone last year??? I think its you in denial mate. A game relased in September (yes 11 whole months since Sunset Overdrive lol) and another disappointing game by 343 (fourth times the charm too eh). Although what was anybody expecting after the disappointing Halo 4, Halo Spartan Assault and Halo MCC?
JoinTheRest
Halo 5 alone at this point obliterates the whole ps Library stop living in detail and accept it princess your library is full of Indie and anime garbage
Tha-Truth
Halo 5 is a trash game for braindamaged morons as evidenced by it’s laughable Metacritic score. The fact that you consider cheap, rotten garbage like that worth playing just shows that Xbox gamers have a rather disgusting lack of standards and self – respect. Your library is full of multi – platform titles and garbage games that flop on Metacritic. Just like your trash excuse for a console flops in the sales charts.

Kelarth
I’m sick of this generation. Last gen the only games that were relevant to PS fans were big AAA exclusives and JRPG’s of course. Now it’s indies, cheap remakes, and crowd funded games, basically anything that’s now on the PS4 and somewhat exclusive. That says a lot. PS is circling the toilet and fans aren’t helping by cheering Sony on for their minimal efforts.
The PS4 fails when compared to the PS3 and even more so with the Xbox 360. The Xbox 360 had over 3300 indies in total and none of them mattered when it came to comparing game libraries between both the PS3 and Xbox 360. Do you remember? By todays standards the Xbox 360 would be a beastly console! Also, tons of PS2 like exclusive third party support due to it’s year head start and even a somewhat decent little number of JRPG’s. The PS4 is definitely sucking eggs despite what cheerleaders like you say.
datdude
Riiiggghhhtttttt. The 360 is a great console, but the games for it trailed off significantly from 2010 to the present…compared to the ps3, the games released for the 360 over that same time frame are abysmal. The 360 definitely had my dollars early in the gen, with games like Mass Effect, Bioshock, Cod Modern Warfare (online community was superior), and Gears of War. Late last gen it was all ps3, with games like Uncharted 2, God of War 4, MGS4, The Last of Us, etc. etc.
Also, the 360 had an atrocious reliability record. I owned 5 myself, 2 of which I purchased, the other 3 replaced under warranty. Almost every friend I know that had a 360 was in the same boat, with many “forced” to buy 4 or 5 360’s over the course of the generation. Sad and unacceptable. You are now seeing just how many of that consoles sales numbers were inflated due to red ring by the butt kicking the xbox one is getting from the ps4 at retail.
As for the ps4, it has twice the number of games available for it as does the xbox one, and those games are more highly rated as well. In addition, it’s got more first party games in development, more 3rd party tie in’s, and more indies coming to the platform. If that equals “fail” to you, you’re not really a gamer. Sorry.
Kelarth
The 360 had more games overall than the PS3 and that’s a fact! Sony’s first party didn’t change that when are you people going to understand this? The 360 was the “PS2” of generation 7 and that’s why it sold well just be reasonable about it and accept it. Using RRoD to explain the 360’s success is just pathetic. That’s just foolish N4G fanboy rhetoric used to downplay the 360’s success and deep down you know it! Why was the PS2 so successful? Ask yourself that. I’ll guarantee that it’s 18 month head start on the GameCube and original Xbox where the biggest reasons for it. Look at all the big third party exclusivity the PS2 lost to the 360. That’s why MS jumped out early and risked it all. But who cares about the truth because then you may have to accept that the 360 was a better system than the PS3. Right? Right.
Like I said before the PS4 has mostly all indies along with JRPG’s and cheap remakes. Nothing you say will change that fact. People buy the PS4 because everyone else is doing it too not because it has all these great big AAA exclusives games.You think everyones dying to play Everyones Gone To Rapture? Higher rated or not don’t kid yourself. The PS4 is nothing special and Sony’s first party in this generation has taken a nose dive the way I see it. If that doesn’t make me a “gamer” by your standards I couldn’t care less.

Thank god Rocket League + exclusives are finally coming to XB1.
XB1 exclusives: Gears of War 4, Crackdown 3, Quantum Break are all going to be sweet.
Crackdown 3 will actually be unplayable on a PS4 hardware. Finally we are going to see the power of Azure. I’m skeptical of DX12 on XB1 but apparently it will be utilizing it. I’m very excited to see what they do with the game overall.
andy
Rocket League is one of those Indie games you all like to complain about, oh and what a shock, its comes to Xbox over 6 months later like every other indie game this gen. Halo 5 was COMPLETELY worth avoiding according to friends who LOVE the Halo franchise.
wow
actually I took back Reach within 1 hour of playing it, I haven’t played halo this hard since halo 1 and 2. This halo has the same mechanics as the old ones which is better for pro. Reach is like BO3 and AW to the halo franchise.
Halo 5 is back on track, every single MP game I play on a new map. There are virtually 100s of MP maps with 50+ different gametypes.
Rocket league is just fun
Kelarth
Yet millions bought Halo 5. Btw, you know the majority of reviews heavily praised Halo 5 for it’s multiplayer, right?

I think we just have to look at your opinion of Game of E3 2015 universally, Horizon Zero Dawn, and we know what kind of a moron you are.

It’s no wonder the Xbox DONE is losing all it’s games to the PC. Microsoft are throwing the towel in because they know the Xbox is nothing more than a weak, pathetic, poor man’s excuse for a console and sales prove that.
The Xbox has been getting clowned by the PS4 in the sales charts every single week since the two consoles released and that’s down to the fact that the Xbox “Exclusives” that the sheepboys like to cry about are nothing but cheap, garage, last – gen shovelware trash that aren’t worth buying.
The Xbox has nothing but low quality trash for its games and that’s why the console Is such a hilarious, pathetic, worthless, unwanted FAILURE in the sales charts and always will be. All the real gamers are taking their money elsewhere, it’s only the delusional, non – gaming drecks that are still trying to damage control for Microsoft’s pathetic poor man’s alternative for a console at this point.

Actually XB1 is doing extremely well as is PS4 against their last gens counterparts.
Calling XB1 a failure is like calling the PS3 a failure last gen, due to most of it’s life span playing catch up to 360, until the end where PS3 did eventually surpass it. I had a shit load of fun with the PS3 and clearly that was not failure. XB1 is finally coming into its own hopefully with Quantum Break, Crackdown 3, ReCore and Cuphead. With the PS4 and the Xb1 it’s a great year to game and be a gamer, that’s Tha-Truth!

Ignorant, two – faced garbage like you are the very reason why the Poverty Box is such a worthless, pathetic, FAILURE in the sales charts.

Reality is this is really more of a marketing problem than anything else.
I have two systems….. and I say to you…..
Both systems have strong 3rd party support
Both have exclusives….
With One the exclusives are only on that system
With the other some of the exclusives will be on PC as well but if you buy the game you get it on both.
For people like me… I don’t really have any interest in gaming on PC but I may check it out since I have one.
Edonus
Now the catch phrase is going to be “True Exclusives”.
PC gamers is a different market…….. when I decided which console to buy I decided between the X1 and Ps4. Gaming on the PC is not that big with console gamers and the data shows this…… Look at all the 3rd party games…. they sell more on console thus PC is not a real threat.

So pretty much the same as 2013, 2014 and 2015 lol.

One product to make as much ca$h from gamers since the PC players won’t pay for your LIVE and pointless accessories.. M$ just go back to PC gamers and give them the service they expect from playing on Windows for decades. Try to see the bigger picture.

It undermines the value and importance of consoles. PCs have no standard they come in all shapes and sizes so console exclusivity gives developers the ability to lock down and optimize the game.
Bad business practices from microsoft again. Just like the way they undermined the tomb raider brand.
They are misleading the gaming community for their own gain.

Once again, PS4 rises to the occasion and proves that it’s the console of choice for REAL GAMERS.
The numbers don’t lie you Shitbox Done owning scum. You’re all part of the problem and it’s satisfying to see you all get fucked into oblivion.
JoinTheRest
Enjoy those sales because with no games that’s all you have lmfao
Tom Hanks
We’ve got plenty of games fuckface, and they don’t end up on PC either. So go die in a house fire you Shitbox Done owning lowlife motherfucker.

Plenty of Indies on the indiestation 4 and they don’t end up on pc because Sony doesn’t own pc Sony is broke as fuck lmfao they can’t even invest into making decent games anymore I mean look at the ps4 library hahaha if their games were half decent then pc gamers would probably want them but nope only the retarded fanbase loves trash so badly
Tom Hanks
Yes, because the garbage Shitbox Done gamers have been willingly choking down worked out so well.
Name one reason to buy that dumpster of a console? More importantly, name one reason to buy it that isn’t something that’ll end up on PC and run higher than 900p?
No answer? Oooooh. DEM FACTS.
Now drink a mass amount of wood varnish and keel over dead. You fucking scumbag. Your console is the equivalent of Section 8 housing. Fuck you.
PS4 is the console for REAL GAMERS.

Haha you wouldn’t be this upset If you had games to play hahahaha
Tom Hanks
And you wouldn’t be commenting if you could actually see your welfare line games outside of their blurry 720 to 900p glory. Better get your eyes checked. Your Roku box is underpowered on EVERY SINGLE TITLE as per usual.
Watch out for dem timed exclusives though, right? Really knocking this generation out of the park.
You can jerk off into a tube sock over the occasional game until it’s available on PC a month or two later. Or in the case of Quantum Shit, get it on a better platform from day one.
Still waiting for that ONE reason to own the Shitbox Done.
PS4 is for the REAL GAMERS. Faggot.

I’m personally not bothered by this. I don’t own a gaming-capable PC. I don’t plan on building or buying one anytime soon. Therefore I’ll be buying ALL of the Xbox One console-exclusives on console and enjoy them. At the same time, I think it’s great that people who choose to play on PC can also experience these titles (except for all the Master Race asshats, they can just go update some drivers or run a virus scan for all I care).

It’s only fanboys that have problems with this. End of discussion.
Based Sony
You’re also forgetting one major point and that is that the Xbox One and Done? It simply isn’t Based.
Fact of the matter is, all the true Based exclusives are on PS4 (like Kojima’s game and SFV).
There isn’t a single platform available on the market that has more exclusives than Based PS4.
JoinTheRest
Worst exclusives of all time you’re blinded dude stop worshipping your Sony God he is laughing at you
Illusive Man
people will still buy consoles.
Microsoft will now just make money from games published to the Windows store.
Long term I can’t see Sony with the combined might of all Windows 10 devices, including the Xbox.

lol.. ok… because Multiplat games generally sell better on PC than on consoles right..? ahhaha dickhead! -__-
PrivatePyle
To all PS4, Xbox and (almost forgot to mention) PC elitist fanboys!… Stop having these dumb ass debates or just die… slowly. While you pre-cum non iq having morons are at it, let the rest of the civilized people just enjoy some games.
