FBC: Firebreak, releasing on June 17, is a spin-off from Control set within the Oldest House, six years post-Events of Control. This timing mirrors real-world years, highlighting the lockdown situation that has trapped agents with the threatening Hiss. Gameplay focuses on collaboration in a three-player co-op format, with characters improvising weapons. Although lacking cutscenes, director Mike Kayetta assures that important lore is integrated into loading screens, creating a narrative context that shares insights about the universe's timeline and characters without traditional document collections.
"We knew that we wanted to find ways to connect back to the [RCU] and expose things going on, especially about this time period and these people."
"The unfortunate agents who were inside the shapeshifting hub that day have spent more than half a decade stuck inside with the Hiss threat."
"You're not going to be able to collect documents in the game and view them--although we have talked about if that's something people want later, we'll look at doing that."
