Remedy Entertainment’s multiplayer shooter FBC Firebreak takes place in the same world as Control, but its gameplay is about as different as it gets. While Control is a single-player third-person game, FBC Firebreak is an action-packed first-person co-op shooter in which players take control of a group of volunteer emergency responders to clean up some of the weirdest anomalies in the Oldest House.

Game Rant gets hands-on with Remedy Entertainment’s upcoming cooperative first-person shooter FBC: Firebreak.
Now that the FBC Firebreak release date is right around the corner, fans of Control and co-op shooters have a lot to look forward to in this genre-fusing title. This guide explains when FBC Firebreak launches and provides a list of FBC Firebreak release times across the globe.
FBC Firebreak Release Time & Date
The FBC Firebreak launch time will be concurrent across all time zones. As a simultaneous global release on all platforms (including PC, PlayStation 5, and Xbox Series X|S), you will not be able to play FBC Firebreak early by changing your console time zone, and console players will get access at the same time as PC players.
Additionally, there is no advanced access for FBC Firebreak – all players will be able to access the game at the same time on launch.
FBC Firebreak is set to launch on June 17, 2025 at 3 a.m. PDT / 6 a.m. EDT. The FBC Firebreak release time on the 17th corresponds to 1 p.m. in Finland’s time zone, where developer Remedy Entertainment is based.
Because of this timing, all players in all time zones will be able to play FBC Firebreak on June 17 in their local time – no one will have to wait until the 18th because of their time zone. However, depending on how far east you live from Finland, the game will not become playable until late at night.
Global FBC Firebreak Release Times Chart
To find out when FBC Firebreak launches in your region, simply convert 06:00 EDT to your local time zone. Players to the west of the EDT time zone will be able to play the game even earlier in the morning on June 17, but players as far to the east as the NZST time zone (New Zealand) will still be able to play the game on the advertised launch day.
