FBC: Firebreak Release Date Announced for Remedy's Co-Op FPS in Control Universe

by Finn May 27,2025

Remedy has set the stage for an exciting new entry in the Control universe with the announcement of FBC: Firebreak, a session-based, multiplayer PvE experience. Mark your calendars for June 17, 2025, when FBC: Firebreak launches across PC (Steam and Epic Games Store), Xbox Series X and S, and PlayStation 5 at a price of $39.99 / €39.99 / £32.99. This game will be available from day one on PC Game Pass, Game Pass Ultimate, and the PlayStation Plus Game Catalog (Extra and Premium). Notably, FBC: Firebreak marks Remedy's first venture into self-publishing.

FBC: Firebreak promises engaging gameplay through its replayable missions, known as Jobs, which come with varied challenges, objectives, and environments. These missions will test players' teamwork and adaptability, ensuring a fresh experience with each playthrough.

For those looking for more, Remedy has introduced the FBC: Firebreak Deluxe Edition, priced at $49.99 / €49.99 / £39.99. This edition includes exclusive cosmetics and premium voice packs. Owners of the base game can upgrade to the Deluxe Edition for an additional $10 / €10 / £7. The Deluxe Edition offers:

  • “The Firestarter” Premium Voice Pack
  • “The Pencil Pusher” Premium Voice Pack
  • 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, designed to reward players with new gear and cosmetics just for playing the game. These Requisitions include weapons, equipment, armor, sprays, and more, all unlockable using in-game currency earned through gameplay. Importantly, there are no limited-time windows or rotating stores; once an item is added to the game, it remains available for all players.

For players seeking additional 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 they are purely cosmetic and have no impact on gameplay. They will also be available permanently.

Remedy has committed to ongoing support for FBC: Firebreak post-launch, with plans to introduce two new Jobs in 2025 and further updates in 2026. All new playable content, including Jobs, will be free to all players. While cosmetic items can be purchased, they will not affect gameplay and there will be no limited-time rotations or daily log-ins, ensuring a fair and accessible experience for everyone.

Amid a bustling lineup of projects, Remedy is also developing Control 2 and the Max Payne and Max Payne 2 remake compilation, keeping fans eagerly anticipating their next moves in the gaming world.
