Quantum Break – April 5th

A time travel experiment has gone awry in the upper east side of the United States at Riverport University.

Paul Serene, the main antagonist, can see into the future, and must decide what choices to make in the present. Jack Joyce, the protagonist, is a person with time manipulation powers. He has the power to make everything, but himself, freeze. Using a variety of firearms and Jack’s time manipulation powers, players will be able to defeat every enemy the game throws your way. Joyce is chased by Monarch Solutions, a corporation founded by Paul Serene, but with all of his time freezing powers, Jack Joyce is unstoppable. Available for Xbox One, PS4 and PC.
