Remedy Entertainment announced on June 3rd during Sony's PlayStation State of Play that Control Resonance will launch on September 24th.

Control Resonance is set in Manhattan seven years after the events of its predecessor. Jesse Faden, the protagonist and Director of the Federal Bureau of Control, has vanished for unknown reasons. Players will step into the shoes of Dylan Faden, who has been released after a long period of isolation, and must save a Manhattan on the brink of collapse due to surreal phenomena.

Alongside the release date announcement, a story trailer offers a glimpse into Dylan Faden's journey as he's dispatched by the FBC to the heart of a supernatural crisis. With new otherworldly resonances, the Hiss and the Mold are twisting the city, and an unknown cosmic force is reshaping reality itself.

Dylan is accompanied on this mission by a new ally, Zoe de Vera. Popular characters from the original Control, Simon Arish and Emily Pope, also make an appearance. With his sister, FBC Director Jesse Faden, missing, Dylan must become the unprepared, last line of defence for humanity.

Johannes Paloheimo, Chief Commercial Officer and Head of Publishing at Remedy Entertainment, stated, "Control Resonance is the most expansive game Remedy has ever created, and we're confident it will captivate both existing fans and newcomers with its exceptional gameplay, narrative twists, and creative challenges." He added, "As this is a title Remedy is publishing ourselves, our global marketing efforts will match its scale and style. Starting with our appearance at this State of Play, we'll be rolling out through Summer Game Fest and other events. We're also preparing various events and opportunities for fans this summer leading up to the September 24th launch."

Mikael Kasurinen, Creative Director at Remedy Entertainment, commented, "As players explore a distorted Manhattan forged by supernatural forces and twisted realities, the narrative delves into themes of identity, power, and sacrifice. Dylan, once a subject of the FBC's experiments, must now use his evolved abilities to confront his past and learn to trust others in a world he wasn't destined to belong to. In doing so, he must regain his humanity and decide what he's willing to sacrifice to protect what remains."

Control Resonance is set to launch on September 24th for PC, PS5, and Xbox Series X/S, with pre-orders now available. PS5 Digital Deluxe Edition purchasers will also receive a 48-hour early access benefit. The Standard Edition is priced at ₩64,800 on Steam, while the Digital Deluxe Edition costs ₩75,800, both featuring Korean subtitles. The game will be available on GeForce NOW at launch, with a Mac version scheduled for release later this year. Adieu.
