Control Resonant: Even the Pirates Say Buy It

Remedy just posted the biggest Steam launch in studio history — and the game-cracking scene responded by telling everyone to pay for it. Control Resonant hit number one on the bestseller chart with an 88 percent positive score on day one. When your pirates moonlight as your marketing department, you've won something no chart can measure.

Day one on Steam: concrete meets nightmare fuel. 88% of players said yes — the other 12% apparently wanted more hammer.

The tech flex is real too. The game ships with NVIDIA path tracing and DLSS 4.5 out of the gate, so the surreal brutalist world has never looked this ridiculous. If you loved the first Control, this is that fever dream with a bigger budget.
