Following its reveal at The Sport Awards on December 11, developer Treatment Leisure introduced that the Control sequel–now often called Control Resonant–will launch someday this yr. And that is all we learn about that for now, as a result of some other launch date info you may even see circulating on-line is pure hypothesis, based on the group’s communications director.
Thomas Puha has been at Treatment Leisure for nearly 11 years, per his LinkedIn, serving because the Finnish studio’s communications director the whole time. It is secure to imagine he is aware of a factor or two about relaying necessary developer info to the lots, which is why he took to X on January 26 to reiterate that Control Resonant would not have a agency launch date proper now.
“Since some information are crediting us saying one thing, that we havent,” Puha said in an X post. “Treatment has solely ever communicated that the discharge window of Control Resonant is 2026. The rest is theory.”

It is unclear precisely what Puha is responding to. A cursory look at Google and X for “Control Resonant launch date” would not pull any outcomes for speculative launch dates for the extremely anticipated action-adventure sequel. And a few customers in his feedback had been throwing out “Q1” and “Q2” home windows for the sport’s launch. That stated, the chatter should’ve been sufficient of a hubbub for Puha to underscore its lack of a definitive launch date proper now.
Control Resonant is the sequel to 2019’s Control, Treatment Leisure’s critically acclaimed sci-fi action-adventure shooter. It follows Dylan Faden, Jesse Faden’s sister and the protagonist of the primary recreation, as he searches for her whereas stopping an otherworldly menace that escaped containment from downtown Manhattan’s Federal Bureau of Control. As an alternative of weapons, although, Control Resonant focuses closely on melee fight this time round, with Dylan utilizing a weapon known as the “Aberrant” that may shapeshift into completely different armaments. Additionally completely different within the sequel is the truth that it is an “expansive, reality-warping playground of alternative,” with you having the ability to discover Manhattan in an “open-ended” method, based on the group’s description of the sport.
Control Resonant is slated to launch this yr on PC, PlayStation 5, and Xbox Sequence X|S.
