What is CONTROL Resonant
CONTROL Resonant is the next major entry in Remedy Entertainment's CONTROL line, set in the same paranatural world as the 2019 CONTROL. Remedy develops and publishes the title, continuing its signature blend of supernatural combat, shifting environments, and dense Federal Bureau of Control lore. Dylan Faden replaces his sister Jesse Faden as the playable lead, while the shapeshifting weapon called the Aberrant sits at the center of the new combat system with four confirmed forms (hammer, blades, scythe, fists) and a Reach / Shift / Gravitational Anomalies toolkit that progress through the Gap.
