Here’s the official description of the game:
FBC: Firebreak introduces Requisitions, a system that rewards players with new gear and cosmetics simply by playing the game. Requisitions can include weapons, equipment, armor, sprays, and more - all unlockable using in-game currency earned through gameplay. There are no limited-time windows or rotating stores; if an item is added to the game, it’s always available.
For those who want additional customization options, Classified Requisitions offer premium cosmetic items - such as armor sets, custom voice packs, sprays, and weapon skins. Classified Requisitions are purchased with real money. The items are purely cosmetic, have no gameplay impact, and will remain available permanently. Read more about how Requisitions work here.
Remedy has also committed to ongoing support for FBC: Firebreak post-launch, with plans to introduce two new Jobs in 2025 and further updates in 2026. All new playable content, including Jobs, will be free for all players. While players can purchase additional cosmetics, Remedy assures that these items will not affect gameplay and there will be no limited-time rotations or daily log-in requirements.
In addition to FBC: Firebreak, Remedy is simultaneously working on Control 2 and a remake compilation of Max Payne and Max Payne 2, keeping the studio busy with multiple exciting projects.
