Developer TeamKill Media has announced that the PlayStation 4 version of Quantum Error has been canceled as “there is no way for us to deliver a version on PlayStation 4 that would live up to what the PlayStation 5 is going to deliver.” It will be replaced by the newly confirmed PC version. A release date for the game has yet to be announced, but the game will launch on PC, PlayStation 5, and Xbox Series X/S. Quantum Error follows ”you—Captain Jacob Thomas—your partner Shane Costa and a crew by the hospital” who are sent to the Monad Facility “to save as many lives from the burning complex as possible and get out.”
The full statement via Teamkill Media:
“Unfortunately, we are going to have to cancel the PlayStation 4 version of Quantum Error. Even with the game being made from the beginning for the PlayStation 5, we still had hopes we could make a PlayStation 4 version happen, but with the level of quality we have achieved with Quantum Error with gameplay running at 60 frames per second, we have reach the conclusion that there is no way for us to deliver a version on PlayStation 4 that would live up to what the PlayStation 5 is going to deliver.
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.”
The game’s details via the developer:
When the Monad Quantum Research Facility—30 miles off the shore of California—is attacked by an unknown entity, engulfing the complex in flames and putting it into a full containment lock-down, a distress call is sent for mutual aid to the Garboa Fire Department in San Francisco, California.
Fire Chief Sturgis answers the call and sends you—Captain Jacob Thomas—your partner Shane Costa and a crew by helicopter to the Monad Facility.
Your mission is simple: save as many lives from the burning complex as possible and get out. However, what starts as a rescue mission quickly plummets into darkness, when you arrive and find that things are not as they appear.
Quantum Error is a cosmic-horror first-person shooter in development by TeamKill Media.
