It follows Jesse Faden, the new Director of the Federal Bureau of Control (FBC), a secret U.S. government agency that investigates and contains phenomena that violate the normal laws of reality. As Jesse, the player explores the Oldest House–the FBC's headquarters–and uses paranormal abilities and a shapeshifting gun known as the "Service Weapon" to combat the Hiss, a hostile, otherworldly entity that has invaded and corrupted the FBC. Players unlock new powers by locating Objects of Power, mundane objects imbued with energies from another dimension. The Oldest House has four sectors that can be explored at a nonlinear pace, and players are free to complete side quests and explore hidden areas. Control was completed within three years with a €30 million budget. Its gameplay is significantly more open than Remedy's past games; the developers drew inspiration from role-playing and Metroidvania games. The game was written by Sam Lake and was inspired by paranormal stories about the fictional SCP Foundation, based on the new weird genre. To demonstrate the game's destructible environmental systems, the Oldest House is designed in the brutalist style common in Cold-War-era government buildings. The game's voice cast includes Courtney Hope as Faden, and James McCaffrey, Matthew Porretta, and Martti Suosalo. The music was composed by Petri Alanko and Martin Stig Andersen. Control uses Remedy's in-house Northlight Engine and was among the first games to use real-time ray tracing built into the hardware of modern video cards. 505 Games published Control for PlayStation 4, Windows, and Xbox One in August 2019 and for the PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X/S in February 2021. Remedy Entertainment began self-publishing the game in 2025. Control received generally positive reviews; critics praised its setting, art direction, gameplay, and characters, although its main story received mixed responses. The game sold over 6 million units by March 2026, and was nominated for several end-of-year accolades, including Game of the Year at The Game Awards 2019 and the 23rd Annual D.I.C.E. Awards. Two expansion packs were released, the second of which, AWE, being a crossover between Control and Alan Wake, forming part of a shared universe named the "Remedy Connected Universe". A sequel, Control Resonant, is set to be released in 2026, and a multiplayer spin-off, FBC: Firebreak, was released in 2025. Control revolves around the Federal Bureau of Control (FBC), a clandestine U.S. government agency that investigates supernatural Altered World Events (AWEs). These AWEs affect the human collective unconscious and have "paranatural" effects, including the creation of Objects of Power, archetypal items that grant special abilities to their wielders. Objects of Power are connected to the Board, a black, pyramid-shaped entity that exists within the Astral Plane, an alternate dimension. The individual chosen by the Board to wield the Service Weapon, an Object of Power, is considered by default to be the director of the FBC.[20] Control takes place within the Oldest House, a Brutalist skyscraper in New York City that houses the headquarters of the FBC. The Oldest House is a Place of Power with several paranatural characteristics: it resists being noticed by anyone other than FBC members and individuals with an innate sensitivity to the paranatural, its interior is larger than its exterior, and its internal architecture is prone to shifting and rearranging in unpredictable ways. The FBC can stabilize portions of the Oldest House for its use by harnessing nexuses of resonance called Control Points. The protagonist of Control is Jesse Faden (Courtney Hope), whom the Board has chosen as the director of the FBC to replace the recently deceased Zachariah Trench (James McCaffrey). Seventeen years prior, Jesse and her younger brother Dylan (Sean Durrie) were involved in an Altered World Event in their hometown of Ordinary, Maine. ________________________________________________________________________ GET YOURSELF SOMETHIN' NICE ⤵️ Get 10% off (most) products at Gorilla Mind! 👉 gorillamind.com/twan ________________________________________________________________________ LET'S GET DOWN TO BUSINESS 🧑‍💼💼 For business inquiries, please go to    / @thetwan   ________________________________________________________________________ SOCIALS 😏🥱🤳 not quite yet lol ________________________________________________________________________
