Here’s the official description:
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 in 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 confirmed plans for ongoing support after the launch, promising two new Jobs in 2025 and more updates in 2026. All post-launch content, including new Jobs, will be free for all players. While cosmetic items can be purchased, they will not affect gameplay, and there will be no limited-time rotations or daily log-ins, Remedy assures.
Remedy, the developer behind Alan Wake, is currently juggling multiple projects. Alongside FBC: Firebreak, they are developing Control 2 and a remake compilation of Max Payne and Max Payne 2.
