New Control Trademark Hints at a Major Remedy Reveal for The Game Awards

A new European trademark for Control: Resonant has sparked speculation that Remedy Entertainment is preparing a major announcement for The Game Awards, potentially linking to its upcoming sequel or transmedia projects.

Remedy looks ready to expand its interconnected universe once again, as a fresh European trademark for something called Control: Resonant has set off speculation across the community. Spotted by MP1st and reported by Eurogamer, the filing covers video game services alongside television and film production tags. While Remedy's name is not directly attached to the paperwork, the trademark lists Nordia Attorneys at Law, the exact firm Remedy routinely uses for its legal filings. With The Game Awards just around the corner, players are naturally connecting the dots and anticipating a formal showcase.

Fans already know that a full Control sequel is in development, shifting the genre focus to an action-RPG following its announcement back in 2022. On top of that, Remedy partnered with Annapurna in 2024 to bring both Control and Alan Wake to film and television screens. Given the classification of this new trademark, Control: Resonant could easily point toward the transmedia projects currently in production, or perhaps serve as the official subtitle for the upcoming sequel or related expansion content.

For a studio that builds its reputation on dense, lore-heavy worlds that spill across multiple entertainment mediums, these filings always warrant attention. Remedy is still navigating a transitional phase following executive shifts earlier this year and the mixed commercial reception of its multiplayer spin off FBC: Firebreak. Bringing the focus back to its core single-player storytelling with a major showcase at Geoff Keighley's year-end gala would be a solid move to rally the player base. We will have to tune in next month to see what the Bureau has planned.
