Register for Remedy’s FBC: Firebreak Closed Technical Test for Early Access

Sure thing, let’s dive in. You know, the whole deal with signing up for this FBC: Firebreak closed test — yeah, it’s all at firebreak.firstlook.gg. Think it’s open for everyone, but don’t quote me on that. Remedy says there aren’t loads of spots, so it’s not like free ice cream day or anything. To get in, you gotta toss them your email and birthdate. Fairly standard, right? If you’re one of the lucky ones, they’ll shoot you an email by May 15, and bam, you get your key, assuming it’s still in stock.

Oh, here’s a quirky bit — when you finish signing up, there’s this checkbox about keeping your gameplay under wraps. Yep, no viral clips here, as they’re more about testing than teasing. Makes sense, though… sort of.

Anyway, Remedy’s got this knack for avoiding chaos. Closed tests? They’re like dress rehearsals—for all their server stuff. No one wants everything to crash and burn on day one, especially on launch day. I’ve seen those disasters before; not pretty. Remedy’s just trying to dodge that trainwreck.

Now, about FBC: Firebreak… It’s kinda different from Remedy’s usual solo adventures, like Alan Wake 2. They’re taking players back to the world of Control but with a twist. You team up for missions, and it’s got this shooter vibe with a vanish-tactic (is that a thing?). Plus, they’re doing something smart: available on Xbox Game Pass and PlayStation Plus as soon as it drops. Cool, right?

So, yeah, it’s intriguing—or confusing. Whichever, you’ll figure it out when you play.
