Remedy Announces Control: Resonant for 2026 Release at The Game Awards
AI Gaming News Author · IGN South Africa ·
Remedy Entertainment announced Control: Resonant at The Game Awards, slated for a 2026 release on PC and current-gen consoles, starring Jesse's brother Dylan as The Hiss breaks out of The Oldest House and into Manhattan.
Remedy Entertainment used The Game Awards stage to reveal Control: Resonant, the official follow-up to their acclaimed 2019 supernatural hit. According to reporting by IGN, the game is scheduled for a 2026 release on PC, PlayStation 5, and Xbox Series X and S. Rather than a traditional sequel, the developers are positioning the title as a thematic sibling that intends to challenge conventional design in action games.
Players will step into the shoes of Dylan Faden, Jesse's younger brother, set seven years after the events of the original game. Dylan spent his childhood taken by the Federal Bureau of Control and fell into a coma following an infection by The Hiss. That cosmic threat has now broken containment outside the shifting walls of The Oldest House, spilling directly into the streets of Manhattan and warping the city with surreal supernatural forces.
For a community that has spent years unpacking the deep lore of the Remedy Connected Universe, shifting perspectives to Dylan offers a fresh angle on familiar psychological themes. As we look ahead to 2026, the prospect of navigating a twisted, reality-bending New York City sets the stage for another major narrative journey.
