During the latest Xbox Partner Preview, Remedy Entertainment finally revealed its Control spin-off project, FBC: Firebreak (formerly Project Condor). While announced for Xbox Series X/S and PC alongside a day one Game Pass launch, it’s also coming to PS5. PlayStation Plus Extra and Premium subscribers can also experience it on day one.
In its recent press release, Remedy referred to the title as “mid-priced” and discussed Crisis Kits. These are essentially loadouts, with the paranatural augments providing “unique powers” to “alter the course of the battle.” Communications director Thomas Puha likened these to Ultimates and implied they could turn against you if you’re not careful. Crisis Kits are customizable, with support items and grenades also available.
FBC: Firebreak launches in 2025. Though Remedy doesn’t consider it a live service title, it will offer free content post-launch. Stay tuned for more details and gameplay in the coming months. The developer is also working on Control 2 and Max Payne 1 and 2 Remake, while Alan Wake 2’s second and final expansion, The Lake House, launches on October 22nd.
