Sunset Overdrive announced for PC (Up: Steam release confirmed; releases tomorrow)

One isn't exclusive to the other. There's nothing that says the X will now never get updated.
And Steam! Yessss.
The writing was on the wall, but I wanted confirmation and there it is.
And that was ... a little cringey.

Nice, so all our digital licenses, become Play Anywhere now?
I think they'll announce the X enhancement tomorrow as well. Wouldn't make sense if they ONLY did a Win 10 / PC announcement.

No word on it being play anywhere. Not all games that are on both Xbox and Windows store are. This may not be.
I sadly never finished this game and it was the biggest draw for me to pick up an Xbone. Was super excited to win a Fizzy plush thanks to the detectives at the old site.
Hope this ends up play anywhere, but if not I'm rebuying on Steam

It would be hilarious if the reason they are shoving this out the back door like this is because of there being no Xbox One X patch.
Would say it all if that's the case. More worried about upsetting Xbox fans than they are about seeing and acting on an opportunity to market towards those who play on PC.
The ideal situation is that every game they realease on PC is on the windows store, Steam and gets an X patch but fucking hell... we just had a perfect event where they could have announced this for the PC and said "hey look, we are listening, that's why it's also coming to steam". But alas...

This pretty much confirms it's not play anywhere. Play anywhere titles share achievements across platforms. (unless he's wrong about it, but he usually has good info on these things)
You'd think if there was going to be an X patch in addition to the PC version, this might have gotten at least a 30 second sound bite this past weekend at their big show, especially considering this is dropping literally less than 7 days later.
For a company so eager to embrace the PC gaming community, Microsoft sends to genuinely not give a shit about the PC gaming community.

On this point, does anyone know when the game might actually hit the digital storefronts? Because if it goes up at midnight in the USA, I should be able to start playing it tonight in Australia, rather than tomorrow (Saturday) morning.
So you find it funny that there are some upset gamers and sunset wont be able to be played better on console?
They don't give a shit mate.
I went to buy the Forza 7 car pass last night because it was on discount only to find that the discount only applies if you are an Xbox live gold subscriber. Why should this nonsense apply to those who only play their games on PC?
Breathe, take a step back, read the words in front of you.
It's not about you or anyone else who yearns for an X patch.
I'm still surprised we're even getting this. Wasn't Insomniac like "Updating that game would be too hard." a little while back?
Nope, doubt there'll be a preorder - they'll just drop it whenever.
Is this closer to Spider Man where there is a ton to do but does not take a long time, so no real affecting quality of the story. Or closer to Assassin's Creed Unity where soon as I can open the map, I can't see the ground there are so many "collectibles"
Cause Spider Man was essentially one of 3 open world game I've actually enjoyed.

1) Insomniac owns the IP and is the sole copyright claimant of the game itself, but Microsoft still has publishing rights, so a port to a competing console platform is out of the question for the time being.
2)
You're best off assuming it's the same exact game as the original, which the XBone ran fine. So if you've been playing any AAA games on your PC in the past four years then you're probably fine.
Oh, you missed out dearly on R&C A Crack in Time. Still their best game, IMO, but Sunset is pretty high up there too.
Yes, our local key seller site (which is officially partnered with thqnordic) actually listed the game and requirements:

Steam store usually updates around 10am Pacific / 1pm Eastern
Fair enough. So next most likely is probably around open-of-business tomorrow (Friday for them) morning?
If you feel it's hard to give empathy for those Xbox One X owners, just imagine a scenario where Valve put out a game but your 1060 gaming PC could only run at 30fps 900p. Better yet, they then go and anounce a Xbox One X 4K enhanced version.
Even though a lot of great games have come out over the past few years, I'd still say this is one of my favorite games from this gen, and one of my favorite Insomniac games (right along with Spiderman). Traversal is so much fun and the weapon variety is fantastic. If this is cross buy with already owning the Xbox digital version, then that's probably just the excuse I need to finally play through the DLC.
