Remedy has announced the next closed alpha test for FBC: Firebreak, and it's coming up very soon. The test begins May 15, and while it's a closed test, you can sign up for a chance to get in.
To sign up, head to the FBC alpha website. Remedy said this is a "limited" test, so anyone who signs up has to cross their fingers and hope for the best to get accepted. The alpha test is being held on PC, PS5, and Xbox Series X|S, and cross-play is supported.
Because this is a closed test, participants cannot share anything about it. "That means no talking about the game on the Steam forums, posting images online, or streaming the game to a public audience," Remedy said.
The purpose of the closed test is to help Remedy with FBC's matchmaking systems and balancing efforts, the developer said. In the closed test, participants will be able to try the Paper Chase and Ground Control missions, as well as the game's three kits with all equipment unlocked.
The FBC closed test runs May 15 at 6 AM PT / 9 AM ET through May 19 at 1:59 PM PT / 4:59 PM ET. The system requirements can be seen below, but note that they are not the specs for the full, finished game.
FBC officially launches on June 17, and it's included as a day-one launch title for Game Pass and PlayStation Plus. Alternatively, it can be purchased outright for $40.
