Quantum Break Confirmed for PC; Buy Xbox One Copy, Get PC Version for Free

[Shawn Zipay]

Microsoft and Remedy confirmed today that Quantum Break is indeed coming to the PC. What's more is that it's coming to the PC on the same day that it's coming to the Xbox One: April 5.

On top of that news is the fact that those who pre-order the Xbox One version of the game will also get the PC version at no additional cost. Of course, there is a catch. That catch is that the game is Windows 10 exclusive. This probably also means that it will probably also be limited to using the Windows 10 Store.

So, how do you get this free copy of the game? You need to digitally pre-order the game through the Xbox Store prior to the game's release on April 5. You will be sent a redemption code via Xbox Live after the game's launch that you can use to download the game through the Windows Store.

Microsoft and Remedy also released the PC system requirements today. Those on older systems may want to sit down for this one.
