Remedy announced the release date for FBC: Firebreak on June 17, 2025.

Here’s the official blurb:
FBC: Firebreak is a system in which players reward players with new gear and cosmetics simply by playing the game. Requests include weapons, equipment, armor, sprays, and more – all unlockable using in-game currency you earned in gameplay. There are no limited windows or revolving stores. It is always available whenever an item has been added to the game.
If additional customization options are required, the categorized request will provide premium cosmetic items such as armor sets, custom voice packs, sprays, weapon skins, and more. Classified requests are purchased with actual money. The item is purely cosmetic, has no effect on gameplay and will remain available forever. Learn how your requests work here.
Remedy also reviewed plans for ongoing support after launch, including two new jobs (missions) to be released in 2025. More updates will arrive in 2026, the developer said. All playable content that has released post-launch such as Jobs is free to all players. Players have the option to buy cosmetics, but none of these items affect gameplay, and there are no limited-time rotations or daily logins, Remedy argued.
It’s a busy time for Alan Wake Developer Remedy. This has many projects on the go. Like FBC: Firebreak, we are working on Control 2 and Max Payne and Max Payne 2 remake compilation.
