In 2019, IGN crowned Control as its game of the year, a singleplayer masterpiece by Remedy. Fast forward to today, and brace yourselves, folks, because Remedy has thrown a curveball by announcing a multiplayer spin-off called FBC Firebreak. Yes, you heard that right - a multiplayer game set in the Control universe. But hold your skepticism, because Firebreak isn't your run-of-the-mill shooter. It's a three-player PVE experience that promises to be refreshingly original and delightfully weird, standing out in a sea of military and sci-fi shooters.
Picture this: you and your mates, armed with bizarre weaponry, are thrust back into the oldest house to tackle the hiss threat as volunteer first responders. From secretaries to rangers, you take on the role of everyday heroes combating an otherworldly menace. The gameplay is all about choosing your mission, customizing your loadout, and braving through different zones separated by containment doors. One such mission, Paperchase, unfolds in a mundane office section where you must work together to fend off sticky notes before facing a colossal sticky note monster - a quirky twist in an already eccentric game.
But what sets FBC Firebreak apart are its unconventional weapons and in-game mechanics. Imagine a snowball launcher that doubles as a fire extinguisher, or a zapper that rains down lightning storms on foes. And let's not forget the office supply shelf that refills your ammo or the rinse station that washes off aggressive sticky notes. With unlockable perks adding spice to the gameplay, Firebreak ensures a dynamic and engaging experience. And for the tech enthusiasts out there, buckle up, because FBC Firebreak will support cutting-edge features like DLSS4, Nvidia Reflex, and full ray tracing, promising a visually stunning ride for players.
