I was enthralled by the X-Files-by-way-of-David-Lynch world of paranormal bureaucracy that they created for <em>CONTROL<\/em>, and (like many) have been eagerly awaiting its sequel.<\/p>\n<p>This past weekend at Summer Game Fest: Play Days, I played the opening hour of <em><a href=\"https:\/\/www.xbox.com\/en-us\/games\/store\/control-resonant\/9nj07vwb9bvk\">CONTROL Resonant<\/a><\/em> and a combat arena from later in the game, to get a taste of its full mechanical complexity. I\u2019m happy to report that they\u2019ve still got that magic.<\/p>\n<p>Where <em>CONTROL<\/em> opens with Jesse Faden entering The Oldest House, <em>CONTROL Resonant<\/em> inverts that by starting with her brother Dylan escaping its bowels to step outside after years of being held there as a prisoner\/test subject\/director candidate.

Jesse\u2019s kit opened up and allowed for specialization over time, but broadly played the same no matter what. With Dylan, on the other hand, I was making significant build choices right away.

A handful of bureau employees infected by the Hiss (the infecting alien force Jesse fought (and apparently ultimately failed) to contain in the first game) are stumbling around to serve as tutorial fodder for me to learn the basics of attacking and dodging. Emerging from the front door, Dylan finds Manhattan to be in similarly rough shape to the Oldest House \u2013 apparently, the Hiss has fully escaped.<\/p>\n<p>A radio on one of the floating bodies chirps out a distress call that Dylan answers. FBC agent Zoe is extremely relieved to make contact with anyone, even if Dylan is understandably cagey at first about his identity, and she directs him towards her. I then begin to fight my way through the apocalyptic streets and alleys of NYC.<\/p>\n<p>In one of these alleys, I face off against my first larger enemies, towering above with giant heads that they smash down on me. A wall blocks my advancement until I clear the impromptu arena of the larger threats, with smaller, basic enemies respawning continually in the meantime. It requires a bit more situational awareness than the previous fight to make sure Dylan isn\u2019t hit from behind, which is just a taste of things to come.<\/p>\n<p>After this I am presented with another set of three choices for my secondary weapon: Crush (a huge, slow, smashing mallet), Drill (a directed, sustained damage weapon), and Extend (a whip-like chain staff for range, which I chose to complement the close-up damage of Slice).<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/section>\n<section class=\"xwsrc-block-content-image\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns\n\t\t is-centered\t\t\"><\/p>\n<aside class=\"wp-block-column column--image flex-basis-100 aligncenter\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/xboxwire.thesourcemediaassets.com\/sites\/2\/2026\/06\/CTRL_R_Preorder_Combat_09-c39960c8197bc4f8c607-1900x1080.jpg\" srcset=\"\" sizes='(max-width: 1900px) 100vw, 1900px alt=\"Control Resonant screenshot\"'><\/figure>\n<\/aside>\n<div class=\"wp-block-column flex-basis-50 push--25 column--content has-text-align-left\">\n<div class=\"acf-innerblocks-container\">\n<p>Eventually you also choose from a third pool of weapons for combo-finishers. That means that you mix and match your main move set from a different set of weapons each for light, heavy, and finishers attacks. Combine the heavy mallet smashes of Crush with the rapid attacks of Slash, and you\u2019ve more or less built your own Kirkhammer.<\/p>\n<p>One element that hadn\u2019t occurred to me before playing was how much <em>CONTROL Resonant<\/em> is also a 3D platformer. Making my way up to some rooftops, I see one of the demo\u2019s more striking images: a sort of ribbon of hundreds of pigeons stuttering frozen midair and spiraling down toward a doorway. I make my way over to it and enter to find a sort of pocket dimension of plant-covered building tops in a black void.<\/p>\n<p>Following an impression of his sister Jesse, Dylan finds a number of what look like 16-bit game consoles that unlock movement abilities like a dash, double jump, and levitation, followed by platforming challenges to tutorialize the new skill before adding another. It culminates after he re-emerges into the city with a little test where he leaps and dashes over the biggest gaps yet to reach the first boss, a Resonant Entity.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/section>\n<section class=\"xwsrc-block-content-image\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns\n\t\t is-centered\t\t\"><\/p>\n<aside class=\"wp-block-column column--image flex-basis-100 aligncenter\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/xboxwire.thesourcemediaassets.com\/sites\/2\/2026\/06\/CTRL_R_Preorder_Combat_07-7d26c9d72207e7e3789d-1900x1080.jpg\" srcset=\"\" sizes='(max-width: 1900px) 100vw, 1900px alt=\"Control Resonant screenshot\"'><\/figure>\n<\/aside>\n<div class=\"wp-block-column flex-basis-50 push--25 column--content has-text-align-left\">\n<div class=\"acf-innerblocks-container\">\n<p>According to Zoe, Manhattan was already under assault by another Altered World Event before the Hiss even escaped the Oldest House, compounding the situation. The Hiss and this Resonant AWE seem to be at odds with one another, at least, as we observe the Resonant Entity removing all Hiss from its surroundings from a distance.On reaching it, the Entity itself takes the form of an enormous woman\u2019s head, cut off at the mouth and embedded in a slab of pavement, telekinetically picking up rocks and garbage to throw at me. It was unsettling and spectacular, which is exactly the intersection where I want a CONTROL boss fight to sit.<\/p>\n<p>I scrape through on the first attempt and am given my third and final build choice of the demo: one of three options for a Resonant special ability. These were Barrage (pulling up rocks from the ground to launch at range), Seekers (summoning a sort of auto-firing turret that you can also throw as an explosive), and Shield (pulling up a shield of floating rocks that you can also use offensively by dashing into enemies). You will eventually have three of these equipped at any given moment, giving you a full suite of six unique attacks and abilities that you can build and tweak \u00e0 la carte. That\u2019s a huge amount of variety even before you take into account the skill trees for each of those weapons with which you can further customize them, or passive abilities you can equip from artifacts that you craft.<\/p>\n<p>I was able to take a sip directly from this firehose of complexity when I jumped to a later save file when Dylan has a full suite of abilities unlocked. The Evacuation Zone is an open combat area, filled with various types of enemies coming from all sides, both melee and ranged. It was a lot to juggle, and Dylan\u2019s expanded kit was overwhelming to take in when jumping ahead like that, rather than building it up incrementally like you will in the normal course of play. It\u2019s good, though \u2013 the fact that I wasn\u2019t able to just button-mash my way through the later gameplay section means there will be some real skill to master, which is exciting in the context of all this deep build variety and room for experimentation.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/section>\n<section class=\"xwsrc-block-content-image is-style-sans\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns\n\t\t is-centered\t\t\"><\/p>\n<aside class=\"wp-block-column column--image flex-basis-100 aligncenter\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/xboxwire.thesourcemediaassets.com\/sites\/2\/2026\/06\/CONTROL_Resonant_Concept_Art_4-5c006b7ff641e3bd278a.jpg\" srcset=\"https:\/\/xboxwire.thesourcemediaassets.com\/sites\/2\/2026\/06\/CONTROL_Resonant_Concept_Art_4-5c006b7ff641e3bd278a.jpg 1191w, https:\/\/xboxwire.thesourcemediaassets.com\/sites\/2\/2026\/06\/CONTROL_Resonant_Concept_Art_4-5c006b7ff641e3bd278a-768x432.jpg 768w, https:\/\/xboxwire.thesourcemediaassets.com\/sites\/2\/2026\/06\/CONTROL_Resonant_Concept_Art_4-5c006b7ff641e3bd278a-1024x576.jpg 1024w\" sizes='(max-width: 1191px) 100vw, 1191px alt=\"Control Resonant screenshot\"'><\/figure>\n<\/aside>\n<div class=\"wp-block-column flex-basis-50 push--25 column--content has-text-align-left\">\n<div class=\"acf-innerblocks-container\">\n<p>Dr. Casper Darling fans can also rejoice: Everyone\u2019s favorite charming, quirky, stealth beefcake scientist makes his glorious return in <em>CONTROL Resonant<\/em>, showing up at the very end of my session in a brief video clip describing when Dylan was first taken in by the FBC.
