Control is Officially Remedy’s RPG Franchise! Big Plans for Future Games Like Resonant

Yaar, if you’re a fan of Remedy’s mind-bending action-adventure game, Control, get ready for some exciting news that might just make you look at the game in a whole new light! It turns out that the paranormal world of the Oldest House was always destined to be much more than just a shooter with cool powers.

According to the creative director over at Remedy Entertainment, the masterminds behind Control, the game has been considered their “RPG franchise” internally for a very long time – even before it officially became ‘Control’! This isn’t just a new direction they’re thinking of; it’s apparently been the core vision all along for Jesse Faden’s adventures within the Federal Bureau of Control.

This revelation is pretty huge! While Control definitely had elements of an RPG, like upgrading Jesse’s abilities and weapons, finding lore documents, and exploring a vast, interconnected world, it wasn’t explicitly marketed as one. Many players saw it more as a unique action-adventure title with a strong narrative. But now, knowing that Remedy always considered it an RPG makes a lot of sense, especially with the deep world-building and character progression.

What’s even more exciting is that Remedy is planning to “fully commit” to this RPG identity in future installments. The creative director specifically mentioned this commitment for titles like “Control Resonant.” This means we can expect even deeper role-playing mechanics, more meaningful choices, potentially expanded character customization, and even richer lore in the upcoming games. Imagine a Control experience where your decisions have a more significant impact on the story or how Jesse develops her powers!

For us gamers in Pakistan who love a good story and meaningful progression, this is fantastic news. Remedy has a knack for crafting unique narratives and gameplay, and embracing the RPG genre fully for Control could take the series to incredible new heights. Get ready to dive even deeper into the Altered World Events and the mysteries of the FBC!
