Summary

Control is a third-person action-adventure game set in the Federal Bureau of Control, a secretive U.S. government agency that studies paranormal phenomena. Players control Jesse Faden, who arrives at the Bureau's headquarters, the Oldest House, to find it invaded by a hostile force called the Hiss. Gameplay combines supernatural abilities with a shape-shifting firearm, and the environment is reactive and destructible.

    I don't have much to add that hasn't already been said, except that, like every Remedy game, this one holds a special place in my heart. Its connected universe and use of paranormal themes are fantastic, but what really stands out is how confidently it embraces its identity. I wouldn't call it underrated, yet I still feel like the conversation rarely reflects just how special it is. I suspect that's because it isn't trying to dominate a single category or wow players with one clever gimmick. Instead, it quietly excels in almost everything it does, and then elevates it all with a generous dose of Remedy's signature weirdness. For those willing to buy into that vision, it's an unforgettable experience.
