Remedy's Breakpoint update revamps FBC Firebreak with Crisis Board

Remedy Entertainment will roll out Breakpoint, the first major overhaul for 3v3 cooperative shooter FBC Firebreak, on September 29 at 1 p.m. Eastern across PC, PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X and S. The free update reworks core systems including progression and the in-game economy, adds a redesigned mission selection system, introduces weapon customization and a new tutorial, and brings fresh missions, enemies and weapons to the Oldest House setting.

The headline change replaces the existing Job Board with a Crisis Board. The new interface presents 46 curated Crises that refresh every 30 minutes and are shared across players, with selectable threat levels and matchmaking. Each Crisis is a curated variant of the game’s six Job types, offered as classic full-run Jobs, shorter Quick Jobs spanning one to two zones, or Corrupted Jobs that feature Corrupted Items. Breakpoint also debuts a new Outbreak Crisis that places players in the Research Sector to confront a spreading Mold infestation, new Mold-specific enemies, new objectives including carrying infected objects that can inflict lethal conditions, and a Moldy status that can transform players into immobile Mold Turrets.
