The studio states that FBC: Firebreak will be available on PC via Steam and the Epic Games Store, as well as on PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X|S. The release is global and simultaneous on June 17, 2025. Pricing for the base game is set at $39.99 / €39.99 / £32.99.

Post-launch roadmap

The studio outlined ongoing support plans after release. Two new Jobs (missions) are scheduled to arrive in 2025, with additional updates following in 2026. Remedy says that all playable content released post-launch – such as Jobs – will be free to all players.

Context for Control fans

While Remedy has not detailed systems or progression, positioning the project as a co-op FPS in the Control world signals a focus on coordinated squad play within a familiar, reality-bending setting. The mention of “Jobs” suggests mission-driven structure aligned with the Federal Bureau of Control framework.

Final takeaway – why it matters

FBC: Firebreak lands with a clear date, multi-platform launch and a free post-launch content plan, framing it as a straightforward co-op entry in the Control universe. If you follow Remedy’s work, June 17, 2025 is the day to watch – especially with day-one access across major subscription services.
