Control Resonant opens up as you get stronger — and as characters start trusting you
August 26, 2026Control Resonant will deliver players to a Manhattan divided into open zones that unlock gradually through new abilities, keys, access cards, and, Remedy says, as you gain the trust of the people you meet.
“Manhattan in Resonant is divided into open zones cordoned off by the FBC, and you can transition between them through FBC checkpoints, but within each Zone, you are only limited by your abilities, as well as keys and access cards that you have obtained,” said Sergey Mohov, lead gameplay designer of the Remedy title. “Consequently, the longer you play, the more open the game will become as you get more powerful, more confident, and gain the trust of more characters.”
Due out on Sept. 24, Control Resonant picks up after the conclusion of 2019’s Control. But instead of controlling Jesse Faden in this sequel, players will take control of her brother Dylan Faden.
