Remedy Entertainment offers players a chance to try out FBC: Firebreak early through a closed technical test. This is a great opportunity to get a feel for the game’s co-op action before its official release on June 17. Here’s what you need to know about signing up, when the test runs, and which platforms support it.
FBC: Firebreak is a three-player cooperative first-person shooter where you and your friends work together to stop an outbreak at the Federal Bureau of Control. The game features various weapons, including fun and unusual ones like a slime-shooting Gatling gun, a gnome RPG, and a lightning gun that can launch you into the air. It promises chaotic and fast-paced gameplay that fans of co-op shooters might enjoy.
How to Sign Up, Technical Test Times, Platforms, and more
If you want to join the technical test, here’s a simple step-by-step guide:
- Visit the official FBC: Firebreak sign-up page.
- Enter your email address.
- Use the confirmation code sent to your email to complete the registration.
The closed technical test will run from May 15 at 6 AM PDT / 9 AM EDT until May 19 at 1:59 PM PDT / 4:59 PM EDT. This window gives players a few days to jump in and help Remedy test matchmaking and balancing. Details about gameplay content or how much of the game will be accessible during the test haven’t been shared yet.
The test is available on PC via Steam, PlayStation 5, and Xbox Series X|S. Crossplay is enabled, so players on different platforms can team up and face the outbreak together. Remedy has noted that signing up doesn’t guarantee access because this is a closed test with limited spots. If selected, you’ll receive a key for your chosen platform, depending on availability.
If you’re planning to play with friends, it’s a good idea to sign up early so you can all join in.
