Control Resonant

Visuals stunning, atmosphere forgives all

🌀 Gorgeous over gameplay

Remedy’s sequel to Control, with Dylan Faden loose in a paranatural Manhattan seven years after the Oldest House cracked open. The visuals are flat-out the best thing about it — insanely good, genuinely loved just looking at it. The combat landed less, after Remedy swapped the original’s gunplay for melee and a shapeshifting weapon. But the atmosphere is strong enough to forgive almost anything else. A solid 4.
