Control’s multiplayer sibling is struggling, but Remedy hopes that its huge new update fixes things

Remedy is releasing a significant update called Breakpoint for its cooperative multiplayer game, FBC Firebreak, which has faced criticism for bugs and lack of mission variety since its launch. The game allows players to take on the roles of the Federal Bureau of Control's elite response team to neutralize paranormal threats. The update will introduce a revamped mission structure through a new Crisis Board, increase mission variety, and add a new crisis in the research sector with three new weapons. A comprehensive onboarding experience with a tutorial and improved user interface will also be implemented. Additionally, players will have the option to customize their weapons with gun mods. Breakpoint is set to launch on September 29, with further updates planned for November 2025 and March 2026.
