Voice Chat Arrives to FBC: Firebreak in New 1.7 Update

Today, Remedy published a new update for FBC: Firebreak, adding an option for voice chat to the experience. 

Previously, if Firebreaks wanted to use voice chat, they would need external methods, which might be tricky if you were randomly matched to players instead of joining an established group. And while there was an option to ping, it relied on your fellow Firebreakers to be on the ball; not an easy task when facing down hordes of exploding Hiss.

Now, not only can players can use the voice chat function, but they will also be able to speak to Firebreakers across different platforms, complementing the game's established matchmaking system. Check it out in game today!
