It would appear as if Microsoft might release its other titles outside of the Windows Store in the long run, or maybe, this has a lot to do with how the game performed. Quantum Break did not recieve mostly positive reviews, something that might have hampered sales, ultimately forcing Microsoft to release it on Steam.
Quantum Break: Timeless Edition should be available on Steam come September 14, 2016.
