Remedy Entertainment has released a new developer diary for the highly anticipated sequel to Control, CONTROL Resonant, and it’s got some new details within it.
In the press release, the developer says: “The new developer diary video reveals more of CONTROL Resonant’s twisted version of Manhattan. Go behind the scenes with the development team and learn how they created a world outside of the confines of the Oldest House.”
Check out the new dev diary, below:
Obviously the original game was pretty “constrained” (and I use that term loosely) to the “oldest house”, but CONTROL Resonant takes things outside. And the Art Director and Creative Director’s of this agree, saying:
“What the Oldest House is to a boring office building, the Manhattan of CONTROL Resonant is to a regular city. For years, the players, developers and Dylan alike have been staring at the brutalist concrete walls of the Oldest House – it’s time to get some fresh air,” said Elmeri Raitanen, Art Director of CONTROL Resonant.
“The world of CONTROL Resonant is filled with paranatural action that takes place in an expansive, reality-warping playground of choice, power, and consequence,” said Mikael Kasurinen, Creative Director of CONTROL Resonant. “We are thrilled to be at gamescom LatAm and bring this latest update to our fans in Brazil and around the world.”
In CONTROL Resonant, players will explore multiple areas of Manhattan in an expansive, unfamiliar world as an invading cosmic force reshapes the environment, defiles natural law and distorts gravity, reordering reality into a geophysical nightmare. Players will traverse perception-bending locations and journey beyond the material world into a mysterious metaphysical space reflecting Dylan Faden’s troubled psyche. Tap into power that Dylan must learn to master and make choices to shape abilities that manifest and grow while exploring a deep progression system. Face ever-changing threats head-on, utilizing the environment, unleashing elemental abilities and wielding the raw force Dylan’s shapeshifting melee weapon, the Aberrant.
CONTROL Resonant is coming to PC, PlayStation 5, and Xbox Series X|S in 2026.
