According to the 2016 Xbox One sci-fi third-person shooter video game/TV show Quantum Break, January 5, 2021 will be the End of Time. For many, that may mean 2021 is looking better than 2020 was.
According to the lore of Quantum Break, the “End of Time” is the moment when the universe runs out of Chronon energy, leading to the collapse of the Meyer-Joyce field, which maintains the flow of time throughout the universe. Lacking in the Chronon energy that keeps time flowing, time stops; the universe freezes, trapped in a single moment for all of eternity. Much of the game’s episodic plot is dedicated to stopping this cataclysmic event.
January 5, 2021 was gleaned from a whiteboard that lists out today’s date as the day when the End of Time takes effect. The data was provided by a character named Paul Serene, who had been sent to the future in a time machine accident and saw the effects of the End of Time first-hand, and then sought to prevent the End of Time’s effects from coming to pass. Whether or not he succeeded will seemingly remain a mystery, as Microsoft has apparently no interest in making a sequel to Quantum Break.
Although a sequel isn’t in the cards right now, Quantum Break‘s developer Remedy Entertainment teased a new game in December 2020. From what it has released so far, it looks like the game will have a hefty story, but it also looks like there’s quite a way to go before it’s ready to show anything concrete like gameplay or story footage. This is assuming the dark future the studio predicted for January 5, 2021 does not come to pass, and it does eventually get the chance to show off its new game.
Some people take video game predictions of future events very seriously, and no doubt feel the End of Time will occur before the end of the day. Quantum Break is 178 GB on Xbox One X, so there’s just enough time to download it before the event takes place, which could make for an interesting way to spend humanity’s last day on earth.
Of course, this prediction could just mean nothing, and tomorrow will come and go like nothing ever happened with the next-gen version of Remedy’s Control releasing on March 3 as planned. It seems likely that a 2016 Xbox One game doesn’t contain accurate predictions of the future, as such predictions were only ever made up for the sake of a time-traveling plot.
Quantum Break is available now on PC and Xbox One.
