Control Resonant is a standalone sequel to 2019’s Control. However, unlike the first game, this isn’t a third-person shooter, but rather an “action-adventure RPG” with fast-paced melee combat much like Devil May Cry.
It ditches the confines of the Oldest House for the sprawling, shape-shifting outskirts of a warped Manhattan. Jesse Faden is a looming presence in Resonant’s story, but her brother, Dylan Faden, takes center stage, this time around.
