Control 2: Developers & everything we know Remedy Entertainment \/ 505 GamesA sequel to Remedy\u2019s Control is coming, this time as a joint venture between Remedy Entertainment and 505 Games. Here\u2019s everything we know so far about Control 2. Control was a sci-fi action game from Remedy Entertainment and 505 Games in which a government agency investigated paranormal events. The game shared a lot of similarities with Remedy\u2019s previous titles such as Alan Wake and Quantum Break but was very much its own entity. A sequel was announced in June 2021, but in November 2022, Remedy and 505 Games revealed they had both signed an agreement to both co-develop and co-publish Control 2, which was formerly known as Codename Heron, as a sequel to the original game. Contents Does Control 2 have a release date? No, there is no release date for Control 2 as of yet. However, the game is expected to be released in late 2023 or early 2024. A financial report from October 2023 revealed that the game is still \u201cIn the proof-of-concept stage.\u201d It also said, \u201cThe plans for this sequel are ambitious, and we have seen good progress both in the designs and in the game build. We will continue at this stage for the next few quarters. We focus on proving the identified key elements before moving to the next stage and scaling up the team.\u201d This implies that the game is still some time from release and may no longer be on track for 2024. What platforms will Control 2 be on? There\u2019s been no word on the platforms Control 2 will be released on yet. However, we suspect the game will be coming to PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, and PC as it seems likely to be released in this generation of hardware. The original was also released on PS4, Xbox One, and Nintendo Switch (Cloud). Although as the game is still in the early stages of development, this makes a last-gen and Switch release less likely. Gameplay and setting Control revolves around the Federal Bureau of Control (FBC), a secret U.S. government agency tasked with containing and studying phenomena that violate the laws of reality. The game is heavily inspired by stories from the SCP Foundation, which are community-led internet horror stories and creepypastas. In the original game, some of the supernatural phenomena break loose and the player must work to contain them, taking advantage of the superpowers they develop as a result. The game is also set in the same universe as the survival horror game Alan Wake, which also sees normal people dealing with supernatural entities. It\u2019s unknown if the game will also connect to the Alan Wake sequel that\u2019s also in development, but it\u2019s still an exciting time to be a fan of this shared sci-fi horror universe. So, that\u2019s all we know about Control 2 so far.
