A purchase for three people
To bring the public together, Remedy first decided to permanently lower the price of FBC Firebreak to set it at €19.99with a temporary reduction that even allows you to buy it for €15.99 right now on Steam. This follows a major update for the title, which changes some arenas while improving the experience and balance, and which notably introduces the Friend Pass system.
If you have already played Split Fictionto cite just one example, you probably know how it works: to purchase the game, you can send a Friend Pass to anyone so that that person can play alongside you, without needing to purchase the title on their own. And since FBC Firebreak is a game that is mainly played by 3 people, it is not one Friend Pass that is offered, but two. People who benefit from it will only be able to play the title if the buyer is also in the game.
An effective way to repopulate the game’s servers, and at a time when the title is struggling to exceed a peak of 66 simultaneous connections on Steam, it is perhaps the last chance maneuver.
FBC Firebreak is available on PC, PS5 and Xbox Series.
