Where the first game was set inside a brutalist federal building gone wrong, Remedy describes Resonant&#8217;s Manhattan as inspired by the real city but filtered through, in their words, &#8220;a deliciously twisted Remedy spin.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>The genre has also shifted. Dylan wields a shape-shifting melee weapon called the Aberrant alongside growing supernatural powers, and the studio has moved from Jesse&#8217;s third-person shooter roots toward <strong>hack-and-slash action RPG<\/strong> combat. Hands-on press described it as <a href=\"https:\/\/finalweapon.net\/2026\/08\/25\/control-resonant-altered-state-trailer-released-at-gamescom-2026\/\">&#8220;a deliciously free-flowing character action RPG.&#8221;<\/a><\/p>\n<figure class=\"gt-video\">\n<div style=\"position:relative;padding-bottom:56.25%;height:0;overflow:hidden;\"><iframe src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/RJTBoQhWaC0\" title=\"CONTROL Resonant \u2013 Official Gameplay Reveal | State of Play | Remedy Entertainment\" loading=\"lazy\" style=\"position:absolute;top:0;left:0;width:100%;height:100%;border:0;\" allow=\"accelerometer;clipboard-write;encrypted-media;gyroscope;picture-in-picture;web-share\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/div><figcaption>CONTROL Resonant \u2013 Official Gameplay Reveal \u2014 via Remedy Entertainment on YouTube<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<h2>The Altered State Trailer at Gamescom 2026<\/h2>\n<figure><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.gametrader.sg\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/control-resonant-characters.webp?w=474&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"Control Resonant \u2014 Dylan and Jesse Faden with supernatural powers\" data-recalc-dims=\"1\"><figcaption>Image courtesy of Remedy Entertainment<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>The new &#8220;Altered State&#8221; trailer \u2014 shown at Opening Night Live on 25 August and available to watch on IGN&#8217;s YouTube \u2014 arrives just weeks before launch and leans hard on spectacle. Dylan tears through ever-warping Manhattan set-pieces, the Hiss and the Mold mutating the city in real time, with at least one boss that reshapes the environment mid-fight. The Prodigy&#8217;s &#8220;Omen&#8221; on the soundtrack is a strangely perfect fit for Remedy&#8217;s brand of surrealist action.<\/p>\n<p>Mikael Kasurinen, Co-Creative Director at Remedy Entertainment, <a href=\"https:\/\/finalweapon.net\/2026\/08\/25\/control-resonant-altered-state-trailer-released-at-gamescom-2026\/\">said at gamescom<\/a> that Control Resonant is &#8220;the biggest game the studio has made.&#8221; The game is playable at the <strong>Level Infinite booth in Hall 6.1<\/strong> throughout gamescom week \u2014 the first time it&#8217;s been publicly hands-on.<\/p>\n<h2>Release Dates, Platforms, and Editions<\/h2>\n<figure><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.gametrader.sg\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/control-resonant-jesse-portrait.webp?w=474&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"Control Resonant \u2014 character seated beneath Jesse Faden's portrait\" data-recalc-dims=\"1\"><figcaption>Image courtesy of Remedy Entertainment<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>Control Resonant launches <strong>digitally on 24 September 2026<\/strong> on PS5, Xbox Series X|S, and PC via Steam and the Epic Games Store.
