Control – Aug. 27
Control, a brand new IP from Remedy Entertainment, is an exploration of the manipulation of supernatural actions that defy the laws of reality as we know them.
Our main character, Jesse Faden, is seeking to locate the whereabouts of her younger brother after he was kidnapped by the Federal Bureau of Control. In a dramatic turn of events, she finds herself as the bureau’s director. This in turn leads to a war against a hostile force called Hiss.
Jesse can use traditional, supernatural abilities such as telekinesis and levitation, and can blend this seamlessly with frenetic gun play. Control boasts stellar graphics, jaw-dropping lighting effects, and offers such fluidity in its gameplay.
Control may not be getting the mainstream hype of other games, but it could be the sleeper-hit of 2019.
