A June 2025 release gives me plenty of time to replay Control and brush up on my paranormal paperwork skills before jumping into Firebreak. The Requisitions system could be fun if the cosmetics are as weird and wonderful as the Oldest House itself—fingers crossed for some killer HRA-themed outfits.
Three-player co-op in the Control universe sounds like a blast—can’t wait to see how Remedy handles the chaos of team-based anomaly containment. The battle-pass system has me a little wary, but if the missions are as creative as the base game, it could be worth diving into.
