But now it feels like something might finally fill that niche — FBC: Firebreak is the kind of wonderfully chaotic shooter that I can see myself playing until those early morning hours.
The mechanics and foundation are all there, and the wonderfully weird of Remedy’s Control is just the icing on top.
To that point, Firebreak is set in the same universe as Control, taking place six years after that game.
That’s what I felt was most important about Firebreak right off the bat, how it respects the player’s time.
FBC: Firebreak launches on June 17 for PS5, Xbox Series X|S, and PC.
