A few days ago, after having it alluded to by an entry in the Brazilian Rating Board, we had it confirmed that Quantum Break would be coming to PC. And free if you pre-ordered the Xbox One version.

A little more detail has emerged now though and among the news of specs and other things, there’s one big piece of information that stands out – it won’t be made available on Steam. Instead it will only be available through the Windows Store.

The news was confirmed in the Major Nelson Radio podcast, as Xbox marketing man Aaron Greenberg was asked about the game coming to Steam to which he replied: “Quantum Break on Windows 10 is a Windows Store exclusive.”

Of course, this could be down to how the Xbox and PC versions will communicate with each other to allow for cross-platform action, as well as Microsoft just wanting to keep their game available through first-party means. It’s just that not bringing it to what is arguably the biggest digital retail market on the PC right now could hurt its sale chances.

Only time will tell though.
