Here's the official description:

FBC: Firebreak introduces Requisitions, a progression system that rewards players with new gear and cosmetics simply by playing the game. Everything from weapons to armor to sprays can be unlocked using in-game currency earned through gameplay, with no artificial time constraints or rotation restrictions - once added, items remain permanently available.

For those wanting extra flair, Classified Requisitions offer premium cosmetics like armor sets, distinctive voice packs, sprays, and weapon skins. These optional purchases use real currency and remain permanently obtainable, with absolutely no effect on gameplay balance. Learn more about how Requisitions work here.

Remedy outlined plans for substantial post-launch support, including two new Jobs coming in 2025 followed by additional updates in 2026. All gameplay updates will be free, with only optional cosmetic purchases available. The developer emphasized there will be no rotating shop items or daily login incentives.

The Finnish studio currently has multiple projects in development alongside FBC: Firebreak, including the highly anticipated Control 2 and the remake compilation of Max Payne and Max Payne 2.
