After a multitude of leaks, Insomniac Games has finally unveiled their official announcement of a PC port for the once Xbox exclusive Sunset Overdrive. It'll be out tomorrow, on November 16, as a Windows 10 PC exclusive game. Though a Steam version was not announced, the game is listed on steamdb, having been updated multiple times today. If you haven't already played the game, it's a third person shooter, similar in vein to Rachet and Clank, another Insomniac title, while taking parkour and grinding elements from Jet Set Radio. Sunset Overdrive will be $19.99 on the Microsoft Store for those using Windows 10.

Why do you hate Windows 10/Microsoft Store? It's not the best, GOG and Steam are leagues better, but it's the only Xbone exclusive that was left that I liked, other then ReCore and Halo.

so, there's no multiplayer, it's a so-so port, it's not play anywhere, doesn't support 21:9

i'm heavily disappointed, i'll pass on rebuying it.

12!

Except I specifically said retail exclusives. Even if my seven was off my one or two... still Failbox.

Even on steam?

this is from reviews from the steam version and twitter

Port is fairly barebones. Mouse is possibly emulated stick, if not something is off with it, dev on steam said fix is underway. FPS is uncapped, resolution support is just 16:9. Seems to run fine though, if you just want a standard 16:9 res and use a controller.

I bought it, gmg have 20% off (vip thing, sign in to see), for £11.99 I can overlook the small tech issues (don't have a 21:9 monitor, but it should still be there), not fussed about mp, didn't even know it had it on xbox. Play anywhere, sucks for those that use the win10 store, but I would have grabbed steam version anyway, so not something I miss.

One word: neat !

Well, I guess a game being an Xbox One exclusive...

So now XB1 has a total of six retail exclusives, and not a single one since Rare Replay in 2015. Failbox.

Or, as I like to call it, the WindowsBox.

Was really tempted to buy it until I read the reviews about the terrible KB&M controls. I'll wait for a fix before buying.

Is this new real or april fools? Any one can illuminate me ?

 

[Paulsar99]

Bought it immediately on steam since its only like 10 bucks here in my country. So good.

 

[Mark McDonut]

WOOO HOOOO
*realises its win 10 only*
fuck...
*goes back home*

Plays fine on win 7 x64, I was worried too but buried a few pages in on steam discussions a few people confirmed it runs on theirs too. Cool game, feels a lot like a punk rock Jet Set Radio/Dead Rising hybrid.

 

[Albytrozz]

anyone know if it's a "play anywhere" title? i don't want to rebuy it tbh, i like the game but i paid a hefty price not that long ago lmao

Yeah I was thinking the same and checked when it was released... but it isn't. So why in the Holy Hell do I need to buy this game again if it's already on my XBOX One?? What's the point of "Play Anywhere" if we're buying separate PC versions of XBOX games?!? It'll go great with my 6th copy of Minecraft...
