Control Resonant was today announced by Remedy at The Game Awards, and has been confirmed by the studio as a sequel to 2019’s Control rather than a television or film endeavour.
“Players will explore a warped Manhattan on the brink of paranatural annihilation in this thrilling action-adventure RPG,” Remedy said of the newly announced title. “Unleash the extraordinary powers of Dylan Faden as he fights for his humanity and survival against a reality-bending cosmic threat.”
Those with keen eyes will note an Annapurna logo on the game’s reveal trailer, below, though Remedy was quick to point out that Resonant, “will be published by Remedy Entertainment,” and that, “Annapurna Pictures are co-financing and co-producing the game as part of a strategic partnership with Remedy Entertainment.”
“After years in confinement at the hands of the Federal Bureau of Control (FBC), Dylan Faden’s former captors are deploying him at the peak of a supernatural crisis. Charged with combating a mysterious cosmic entity as it alters fundamental aspects of our reality, Dylan must harness his new found powers to take the fight to the myriad threats overwhelming Manhattan.,” Remedy continued.
“On the path to unlocking the full potential of his supernatural abilities Dylan will also seek out his sister, FBC Director Jesse Faden, as he struggles to comprehend and contain the dangers that have spilled beyond the confines of the Oldest House to tear the world apart,” said Remedy.
“Control Resonant pushes our paranatural action RPG series into an expansive, reality-warping playground of choice, power, and consequence,” said Mikael Kasurinen, the game’s creative director. “You don’t have to know the first game to jump into the sequel, we’ve made this one easy to pick up and hard to put down.
“We’re pushing the scale beyond anything we’ve done before, elevating combat, exploration, and storytelling into a bigger, more memorable experience,” Kasurinen continued. “It’s ambitious, a little wild, and we can’t wait for players to get lost in it.”
Control Resonant is planned for a 2026 release on Windows PC via Steam and the Epic Games Store, Mac via Steam and the Apple App Store, and consoles including Xbox Series S, Xbox Series X, and PS5.
