Remedy has confirmed roughly how long Control Resonant will take to finish, along with fresh details on how its combat has evolved from the original game.

The short version

  • Speaking to TechRadar , lead gameplay designer Sergey Mohov said the main story will run to around 30 hours to complete, with players chasing full completion looking at closer to a 50-hour runtime.
  • "We actually have a pretty long and eclectic list of references, and they're not all video games," Mohov said.
  • "If I had to name one game that this game [Resonant] is trying to be like, it would be the original Control.

What happened

That's our number one reference for everything. "With our creative director, we started figuring out what makes Control, Control?" he added.

Why it matters

"That was a big question, because we wanted to make a sequel that is spiritually and experientially similar to the first game, so it still feels like a Control game.
