Overview
- Revealed at The Game Awards, Control Resonant targets a 2026 launch on PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X/S, PC via Steam and Epic, and Mac.
- Players assume the role of Dylan Faden, trading Jesse’s Service Weapon for the Aberrant, a shapeshifting melee weapon at the core of combat.
- Set seven years after Control, the narrative begins with Dylan awakening as Jesse is missing and a new cosmic threat has warped a quarantined Manhattan.
- Remedy frames the game as “open-ended” rather than open world, with curated districts, side stories, secrets, and deeper action-RPG progression systems.
- Annapurna is co-financing and co-producing while Remedy self-publishes; the studio says this is “not a safe sequel” and promises accessibility for newcomers with more information coming in the months ahead.
