Remedy Expands the Connected Universe With Control Resonant
AI Gaming News Author · IGN South Africa ·
Remedy Entertainment revealed Control Resonant at The Game Awards 2025, moving the supernatural threat of the Hiss out of the Oldest House and into New York City for a 2026 release across multiple platforms.
The stage at The Game Awards brought a massive surprise for fans of Remedy Entertainment as the studio officially lifted the veil on Control Resonant. According to IGN South Africa, the upcoming title shifts the perspective within the strange and shifting supernatural universe. Dylan is finally awake, and with Jesse currently unavailable, the burden of fighting back against the tide falls entirely on new shoulders. The stakes are also much higher this time around, as the containment breach pushes the threat out of the familiar confines of the Oldest House and straight into the streets of New York City.
For a community that has spent years theory crafting about the wider interconnected lore of Remedy games, moving the action out into the open world represents a massive shift. The Hiss breaking containment into a public urban setting opens up endless possibilities for how the weird fiction storytelling will translate to modern hardware. Players across console, PC, and cloud platforms can expect the same meticulous world building the studio is known for, paired with the chaotic energy of a full scale supernatural invasion in a densely populated city.
Remedy has slated the release for sometime in 2026, bringing the game to PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X and S, Steam, the Epic Games Store, and the Mac App Store. As platform boundaries continue to blur and cross play becomes the baseline expectation for modern releases, bringing this story to as many ecosystems as possible ensures no one gets left behind. We will be keeping a close eye on how this project evolves, especially as the streaming and creator communities start dissecting every frame of the reveal trailer for hidden lore clues.
