GameWatcher heads to Manhattan in search of the Control Resonant release date, launch platforms, gameplay details, trailers, and more.
Remedy hit a new level when Control released in 2018. A confidently weird stride through an impossible building full of strange artefacts and corrupted beings proved a hit, and the developer has gone from strength to strength since then.
Now we’re finally getting a sequel in the form of Control Resonant. A new protagonist, a new setting, but unmistakably Control.
So, what do we know of Control Resonant’s release date? What will it launch on? How will it play this time? Let’s take a deeper look.
Control Resonant Release Date
It may have been eight years since Control, but the announcement of the Control Resonant release date being September 24, 2026, was still surprisingly soon.
Control Resonant Story
FBC Director Jesse Faden’s lockdown is no longer holding. A paranatural catastrophe has spilled beyond the Oldest House and onto the streets of Manhattan, and the Bureau’s grip on containment is failing.
After years in confinement at the hands of the Federal Bureau of Control, Dylan Faden emerges into a warped Manhattan at the peak of the paranatural crisis.
Charged with combating a mysterious cosmic entity as it alters fundamental aspects of our reality, Dylan must harness his newfound powers to take the fight to the myriad threats overwhelming Manhattan.
Control Resonant Gameplay
In Control Resonant, we’ll explore a deep progression system to define how Dylan adapts to emerging dangers. Forge connections crucial to Dylan’s fight to retain his humanity as he journeys from former test subject to paranatural superweapon.
Meet constantly evolving threats head-on, utilising the environment, deploying elemental abilities and using the raw force of Dylan’s shapeshifting melee weapon, the Aberrant.
With the Aberrant, you can deliver bone-crunching blows with a two-handed hammer and flow seamlessly into the swift precision of dual-wielded blades as this supernatural weapon morphs on demand to meet each new challenge.
Control Resonant Platforms, Pre-Orders, and Prices
Control Resonant will launch on PS5, Xbox Series X/S, and PC for £49.99, with a Digital Deluxe version available for £59.99. You can pre-order the game on all three storefronts now.
