Nobody does it like Remedy
Control Resonant is a sequel to the 2019 game Control that shifts the setting from a confined building to a warped, open-world version of New York City. The game introduces a new protagonist, Dylan Faden, and transitions from a shooter to a melee-focused experience featuring gravity manipulation and unique traversal abilities. Reviewers note that while the initial gameplay feels familiar, the game eventually delivers the distinct, surreal style that defines the developer Remedy Entertainment.
