Battlefield 6 First Impressions! Remedy Suffering from FBC: Firebreak?

Battlefield 6 First Impressions! Remedy Suffering from FBC: Firebreak?

Author: Sheridan Media October 17, 2025 Duration: 1:14:19

Welcome to Active Relaod! This week, James and Grant (mainly Grant) open the episode by talking about Battlefield 6! Grant gives his good, bad, and ugly after his time with it.

Then, the guys discuss Remedy's profit warning to investors due to "weak sales" from FBC: Firebreak. The show was wondering who this game was for when it was first announced and Remedy seemingly never got an answer to that question. Also, does this have a bigger impact on the games as service model as a whole?

Finally, is Pokémon officially back?! Pokémon Legends Z-A is here, and it is getting very good reviews, the gang discusses their fond, albeit limited memories of the series, but mainly reminisce on Pokémon Go.
