Düsseldorf, December 1, 2025 – Following the recently released free “Alarm Mode Update,” Firefighting Simulator: Ignite will soon receive new missions. On December 11, the “Parker’s Story DLC” will be released. The announcement trailer showcases the new missions that put players in the role of a crew member.
Don’t Look Back in Anger
Parker is an experienced firefighter with the Oakridge City Fire Department who has so far supported players as an NPC crew member. The DLC looks back to a time when Parker himself took command of a response team during a high-risk mission. What initially seemed like a routine operation quickly turns into a highly complex situation, leading to tensions between Parker and his team.
The new “Parker’s Story DLC” adds two new story missions that not only deliver intense firefighting action but also reveal more about the background of crew member Andrew Parker.
Free Update Introduces New Mode
A free update released on November 6 added a highly requested feature from the community — a new game mode. The “Alarm Mode” allows players to respond to randomly generated emergency calls that can occur at any time.
Additionally, new customization options for NPC crew members have been introduced. Since its launch on September 9, the game has received several updates, including new activities at the fire station and the ability to switch between uniform and gear.
The Parkers’ Story DLC will be released on October 16 for 4.99 EUR / 4.99 USD (SRP) on PC, PlayStation®5 and Xbox Series X|S. The DLC is part of the Year 1 Season Pass.
Firefighting Simulator: Ignite is available for PC, PlayStation®5 and Xbox Series X|S. The Firefighting Simulator: Ignite – Year 1 Edition can be purchased for PC, PlayStation®5 and Xbox Series X|S. This Edition includes the base game, the Fire Station Companion Pack and the Year 1 Season Pass. With the Year 1 Season Pass, players save more than 35% compared to purchasing the included DLCs individually. Throughout the Year 1 Season, a cosmetic pack, two vehicle packs, three mission expansions, and one major expansion will be released.
