Remedy lays out its plan to fix FBC: Firebreak, which includes improved onboarding

Remedy, the developer of FBC: Firebreak, has announced plans to fix the game and improve the player experience after a rough launch earlier this year. The focus is on enhancing the onboarding process, as many players reportedly leave the game within the first hour due to feeling "ineffective and confused." To address this, Remedy is implementing several changes, including an introductory video with a narrative to explain the game's world and its connection to the developer's previous hit, Control. The company is also building a playable tutorial level and introducing more "pop-up" tips to better teach new players the core mechanics and features. Additionally, Remedy is adding three new heavy guns to the arsenal, a modding system for weapons, and making "big changes" to the mission system. The developer promises to refine several elements to increase the "fun factor" and introduce new game modes and missions in the future. These updates are expected to be released in the game's first major update, which is planned for the winter. FBC: Firebreak is available on Game Pass and PlayStation Plus, making it accessible for players to experience the improvements.
