As you find the people who make up the Federal Bureau of Control \u2013 and the many redacted files they leave behind \u2013 you\u2019ll piece together a backstory that is frequently hilarious.<\/p>\n<p>Seeing how layers of governmental bureaucracy interact with impossible objects, possessed people, and unbelievable events is a genuine joy \u2013 and a very real way of helping the player feel a little less lonely in a world that purposely makes no sense anymore. My personal favorite bit of comedy lies in a corner of a Field Office you find early on, where \u2013 if you just stop and listen to the chatter \u2013 two FBC guards are slowly but surely trying to convince their boss that he is, in fact, a ghost.<\/p>\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\">\n<p>There\u2019s so much more to discover when <em>CONTROL Resonant<\/em> arrives on September 24, for XBOX Series X|S and XBOX On PC.
