A more open world with secrets to find
This new episode will therefore take place seven years after the events of the first Controlwhen Jesse saved his brother and took over as head of the Bureau. Today, the protagonist of the previous opus is missing, and Manhattan is invaded by supernatural forces that the Bureau was unable to contain. Dylan wakes up when the city is in disarray, and sets out on a quest to save it, helped by a new weapon “Apparent”, which can take different forms, a bit like his sister’s weapon.
In Control Resonantthe areas should also let us breathe a little more by being more open. If we are not talking about an open world, there will be a fast travel system with traversal mechanicsas creative director Mikael Kasurinen says:
“ I think the way we handle movement is going to stand out, and I also think we have a unique approach to how we combine melee combat, forward propulsion, and supernatural abilities. »
A slightly more open world also means more optional secrets to unearth, and we are promised that nothing will be superfluous here. We imagine that we will find some elements related to the Remedyverse (which includes Alan Wake), but all this is still mysterious.
Control Resonant is planned for 2026 on PC, PS5 and Xbox Series
