A few years back, it came to light that Remedy's acclaimed 2019 title, Control, is set to receive a multiplayer spin-off (internally referred to as Condor) alongside a proper sequel. During the recent Xbox Partner Preview, Remedy unveiled the first glimpse of this project, marking their inaugural venture into the multiplayer arena. FBC: Firebreak is a three-player first-person shooter that thrusts Federal Bureau of Control (FBC) agents into battle against the eerie adversaries of the Remedy Connected Universe, infected by the Hiss. Below, you can watch the reveal trailer for FBC: Firebreak. Notably, it appears that players won't be stepping into the shoes of Jesse Faden. Instead, they'll take on the role of fresh recruits within the FBC, answering the call to paranatural duty.
This wasn't the sole Remedy announcement of the day. The team also released a new trailer for The Lake House, the second (and presumed final) expansion of Alan Wake 2, slated for release next week on October 22.
