Despite being considered one of the best action-adventure titles to hit the Xbox One and PC this year, Quantum Break has suffered from a few in-game glitches that have gotten in the way of many fan's gameplay.
Game developer Remedy Entertainment has announced that it will be rolling out patch designed to address issues with the game. These include fixes for crashes, sudden loss of game saves and unnecessary loading.
The latest patch for the Xbox One version of the Quantum Break can be downloaded starting on Thursday, April 28, while the PC version of the game fix is set to be made available by the end of the week.
According to the Quantum Break Community Manager on Reddit, Microsoft Studios and Remedy are aware of the issues affecting players who use the Windows 10 version of the game, and they are working hard to provide a fix for all these problems.
Some of the glitches fans encountered in the Xbox One version include certain in-game elements that were either missing or disappearing from scenes. The game also suffered from issues with its rendering, overlapping audio and even flickering environments.
Gamers also experienced having their game progress suddenly deleted by a bug after they have completed the game. Others noticed that Quantum Break also had too many pointless loading screens, which would sometimes stall the game.
The Xbox One patch is designed to address all of these problems, as well as issues with missing cloud saves.
Meanwhile, the PC version of Quantum Break suffered from several performance issues such as the lack of support for running the game at 60 frames per second and the absence of a quit button. Remedy has offered its apologies to PC gamers and promised to provide solutions for these concerns as soon as possible.
For now, here is a quick rundown of the game fixes that Remedy has provided for Quantum Break on Xbox One:
