Image credit:Remedy FBC: Firebreak is a bit of a departure from Remedy’s usual games, given that it’s a three-player multiplayer first-person shooter . The shooty bit is nothing new, that’s pretty typical of Remedy’s games, even if the shooting always has something slightly off about it. It’s the multiplayer angle that sets it apart, and, funnily enough, the fact that Remedy don’t always make shooting feel all that great, so it’s left me curious as to how it actually plays....
