FBC: Firebreak, Remedy's Co-Op FPS in Control's World, Gets Release Date

Remedy has exciting news for fans: FBC: Firebreak, a session-based, multiplayer PvE game set in the Control universe, is set to launch on June 17, 2025. Players can dive into replayable missions called Jobs, each offering unique challenges, objectives, and environments that demand teamwork and strategic adaptability.

FBC: Firebreak will be available on PC via Steam and the Epic Games Store, as well as on Xbox Series X|S and PlayStation 5, priced at $39.99 / €39.99 / £32.99. It marks Remedy's first venture into self-publishing and will be accessible on day one through PC Game Pass, Game Pass Ultimate, and the PlayStation Plus Game Catalog (Extra and Premium).

In addition to the standard edition, Remedy unveiled the FBC: Firebreak Deluxe Edition, priced at $49.99 / €49.99 / £39.99. This edition includes exclusive cosmetics and premium voice packs such as "The Firestarter" and "The Pencil Pusher" Voice Packs. Owners of the base game can upgrade to the Deluxe Edition for $10 / €10 / £7. The Deluxe Edition features:

• Firestarter Armor Set, Apex Revision (Helmet, Body Armor, Gloves)
• Scorched Remnant Double-Barrel Shotgun Skin
• Golden Firebreak Spray
• Classified Requisition: “Firestarter”: A collection of 36 unlockable cosmetic items including weapon skins, sprays, and armor sets

FBC: Firebreak introduces a new system called Requisitions, which allows players to earn new gear and cosmetics by simply playing the game. These rewards encompass weapons, equipment, armor, sprays, and more, all unlockable with in-game currency. There are no limited-time windows or rotating stores; once an item is added to the game, it remains available indefinitely.

For players seeking further customization, Classified Requisitions offer premium cosmetic items such as armor sets, custom voice packs, sprays, and weapon skins. These can be purchased with real money but are purely cosmetic with no impact on gameplay, and they will stay available permanently.

Remedy has committed to ongoing support for FBC: Firebreak post-launch, with plans to release two new Jobs in 2025 and further updates in 2026. All new playable content, including Jobs, will be free for all players. While cosmetics can be purchased, they won't affect gameplay, and there will be no limited-time rotations or daily log-in requirements, Remedy assures.

Amidst a bustling lineup, Remedy is also working on Control 2 and a remake compilation of Max Payne and Max Payne 2, keeping fans eagerly anticipating their next moves.
