Xbox’s Spencer: Crackdown 3, Scalebound and Quantum Break may be available for PC

Xbox head Phil Spencer hasn’t ruled out the release of Xbox One titles Crackdown 3, Quantum Break and Scalebound on Windows PC.

“In the case of things like Scalebound or Crackdown or Quantum Break, you know, just to be completely honest with you, we started those games before we really looked at expanding into Windows in the way that I wanted to bring as part of becoming head of Xbox,” Spencer said to PC Gamer.

“Going to those teams mid-cycle and saying: ‘Hey, by the way, I want to add a platform,’ didn’t really feel like necessarily the best way to end up with the best result for the game. They had a path that they were on. It’s not to say those games could never come to Windows, but right now we’re on the path to finish the great games that they’ve started, and I want that to be the case.

“These games are on a path, whereas with, like, Halo Wars 2 I had the opportunity from the beginning, when we’re sitting down with the studio, to say, ‘Here’s the target. Here’s what we wanna go do.'”

PC Master Race and all that.
