Quantum Break Mega Guide: Intel Objects, Quantum Ripples, Collectibles, and More

Quantum Break is now out, and while people will argue about whether or not it lived up to its immense hype, there is little doubt that the game is regardless, one that deserves to be played through. It is certainly an experience different from anything else on the market, and though it fails to stick the landing in a lot of the new things that it tries, it is a great title that deserves to be played through at least once.

Ironically, though, for a game that is as about the infinite potential of time, Quantum Break is actually fairly linear, and easy to max out- the game does have some choices, but those make very minor differences to the overall story, and on the whole, it plays like a linear shooter that doesn’t go out of its way much to encourage players to go off the beaten track.

If you got Quantum Break, you should be able to max it out yourself without much help- but if you do decide you want help, this guide (as well as our other guides for Quantum Break) should help you. In this guide, we cover the various hidden secrets and collectibles in the game- as well as a guide for all the Achievements in the title.

ALL COLLECTIBLES: NARRATIVE OBJECTS, INTEL OBJECTS, QUANTUM RIPPLES, AND CHRONON SOURCES

Rather than splitting up this guide on the basis of each individual kind of collectible, and its location through the game, these videos below will help you get all collectibles per act- this should be a far easier, more organized way to track everything down.
