Quantum Break to Return to Xbox Game Pass After Temporary Removal for License Renewal, Says Remedy

Since its addition to Xbox Game Pass in 2018, Remedy Entertainment's Quantum Break has been a fan favorite. However, fans were recently disheartened to see the game listed in Game Pass's "Soon to be unavailable" section. This led some to believe that the game would be removed permanently, contrary to Microsoft's goal of keeping first-party games on the service indefinitely.

Don’t worry, Quantum Break will be coming back to Game Pass!

It is being temporarily removed due to some licenses that expired that were in the process of being renewed. We will let you know as soon as it is back. pic.twitter.com/xtuxVJuUAc

Remedy Entertainment took to Twitter to reassure fans that the game would only be removed temporarily. The developer explained that some of the game's licenses had expired and were being renewed, resulting in the game's removal from Game Pass. Remedy has promised to tell fans as soon as the game is back on the service.

The inclusion of Quantum Break on Xbox Game Pass has allowed players to play the game without having to pay for it outright. The service has become an important part of Microsoft's Xbox platform strategy, providing players with access to a large library of games for a monthly fee. Microsoft has made significant investments in first-party game development in recent years, and Game Pass has become a means of introducing these games to a wider audience.

For now, fans of Quantum Break can relax knowing that the game will return to Xbox Game Pass in the near future.
