Quantum Break has been an incredibly shy game. It was announced at the Xbox One reveal event all the way back in early 2013. We’ve only seen it once since

It is almost hard to remember that Battlefield Hardline came out this year. That title seemed to just come and go with out much fanfare. At least no where

Like the rock-paper-scissors gameplay of previous DICE games, these fights are aimed to be both tactical, fun, and balanced even though asymmetrical.
