Quantum Error was officially announced for PlayStation 5 back in 2020. Later on, the team also talked about a post-launch PC version and announced an Xbox Series version. Interestingly, as covered some weeks ago, the Xbox Series version might take up some additional time as the team has said that the console's slower SSD is holding up the game's development on Microsoft's console.
"“We will have a couple gameplay videos lined up to show off as soon as we can announce everything", the studio tweeted. "We have started looking into optimizing the game for Xbox, but it is definitely going to take a bit of time unfortunately; QE has been made to be played with the PS5’s extremely fast SSD, the Xbox SSD is quite a bit slower and so we are going to have to change things quite a bit to make up for that difference in speed.”
Prior to the launch of the PS5 in November 2020, TeamKill Media President Micah Jones already shared his excitement for Sony's console, praising Sony's Mark Cerny:
"We feel the man is an absolute genius! It felt like the system is designed with developers in mind. We are really excited about the Zen 2 CPU, which will make things possible on PS5 that were not on PS4. Also, the Tempest audio engine explanation made us squeal like little excited kids! The HRTF and sound experience that we will be able to create for our players is truly groundbreaking with the PS5."
Although Quantum Error was also supposed to be coming to PlayStation 4, the team recently announced that it had dropped the PS4 version due to hardware limitations. "A PlayStation 4 version would require too much downgrading and changing of assets, lighting, and much more to function, and with the difference in memory and the slower HDD speed, it would be a very different experience that will not compare to the PlayStation 5 version and would not be fair to PlayStation 4 players.”
