FBC: Firebreak

FBC: Firebreak is a proposal that, while technically competent, fails to capture the magic that defined Control. Its gameplay loop is repetitive, its progression frustrating and its setting bland. While there are moments of fun mayhem and certain clever mechanical ideas, they are not enough to sustain a multiplayer experience that, in a saturated market, needs much more to stand out. In its current state, it's a game that may entertain a couple of afternoons with friends, but will be forgotten just as quickly if Remedy doesn't do something to ‘remedy’ it.
