Remedy Entertainment unveiled the first extended gameplay trailer for Control Resonant during today's State of Play event, showcasing Dylan Faden's abilities in a warped New York City. The sequel shifts from the Bureau of Control building to an open urban environment where buildings defy gravity at 90-degree angles.

Dylan, Jesse's brother who players hunted in the original game, wields a shapeshifting weapon called the Aberrant that transforms between hammer, blades, and other melee forms. This marks a significant departure from Jesse's gun-based combat, with Dylan's powers allowing him to redefine which surfaces serve as the ground beneath his feet.

The trailer demonstrates Remedy's signature supernatural action with physics-defying environments that bend reality. While no firm release date exists, the studio maintains its 2026 launch target, promising that "things are going to get weirder" as development continues. The shift to NYC's twisted streets should provide fresh gameplay opportunities compared to the first game's contained setting.
