Review Control Resonant by JVFrance
Smooth onboarding, quickly launching the action
Successful transition to the open world, with a true feeling of freedom.
Stunning, vertical and parkour-focused level design
Diverse environments despite a ubiquitous urban setting
Easy-to-learn gameplay that gains in depth
A unique artistic direction, driven by the Northlight engine
Dylan writes remarkably well, and his touching relationship with Zoé.
Exciting lore, deepened by the documents to collect.
The audio part is successful: exceptional original dubbing, Zoé's mixtape hits the mark and Petri Alanko delivers a varied OST.
Generous lifespan (expect 30 to 60 hours)
Limited bestiary and too many enemies, constantly respawning.
French dubbing next to the dialogue
A few small bugs to fix
No musical moment as iconic as in the previous games.

Review Control Resonant by GamingBolt
Remedy's incredible art direction is on full display, from the detailed streets of Manhattan to patterned landscapes
Traversing these environments and encountering different pieces of content, be it side quests or straightforward tasks, also feels very good
Combat is easy to get into and incredibly responsive, with an impressive array of enemies and bosses to battle
Exceptional storytelling and writing, punctuated by some genuinely unexpected twists
Solid performance and fidelity on PS5
Combat takes some time to open up and really let you lean into its options
Even then, I would have appreciated more moves for the weapons
Some iffy dialogue abounds, and certain tasks can feel a little too cliche
Image quality occasionally suffers on console in Performance Mode

Review Control Resonant by Comunidad Xbox
More direct and exciting confrontations
The Aberrant and Dylan's powers allow for the creation of specialized constructions.
Incredibly satisfying movement
Breathtaking artistic direction and level design.
The open world sometimes feels artificial.
The decision to link weapon change to reset points
The combat system remains halfway between the ARPG and hack and slash.
Quality mode limited to 30 frames per second

Review Control Resonant by GameScore.it
Spectacular, dynamic combat system with extensive customization options.
Extraordinary setting, with a surreal, fascinating, and full-of-surprises Manhattan.
Immersive and more accessible narration, accompanied by excellent artistic and sound direction.
A somewhat slow start, especially regarding skill development and the combat system.
Some repetitive side activities, less inspired than the main missions.
Some technical imperfections on the standard PS5, including sporadic slowdowns and character rendering that is not always flawless.

The storytelling is truly spectacular.
The detail in the sound track and in the graphic section
The diversity of missions
The excessive use of the color red makes the fight difficult.
Initially, the fights can be quite difficult.

Review Control Resonant by Complete Xbox
More classic Remedy weirdness, both in gameplay and style
Complex story and plenty to uncover
Fast, frantic and fluid melee action
Easy to learn, smooth parkour movement around the city
Lots to discover and do, with plenty of variation
If you?re not a fan of Remedy games or their stories this title will not change that
Enemy battles can often seem overwhelming, and offscreen enemies can score cheap hits
The control scheme has a lot for you to remember, especially in tense scenes
Melee combat can often be a case of spamming attacks with no subtly or style
Difficulty spike early on in game can lead to frustrating areas to replay

Review Control Resonant by GameKult.com
The scenario is well-crafted and the lore is even more so.
Dylan Faden is not a charismatic monster, but he is a credible protagonist.
An artistic direction in free-wheeling and full of crazy ideas
Stunning level design
A boldness that is rarely encountered in AAA games.
A very well-designed assistance mode allows you to adjust the difficulty at your leisure and without penalty.
Remedy's love for good music and sound design
The RPG layer seems superfluous
The fights are functional, but too long and too numerous.
Remedy does not seem equipped for cinematics.

Excellent combat with plenty of upgrades
Dylan and Jesse's story is beautiful
Spectacular Doctor Strange / Inception visuals
Music is used sparsely but to great emotional effect.
There's a lot of grind
Fairly small range of enemies
Messing with gravity is cool, but your head will hurt
Some Kojima-esque swings in to the weird don't work

Remarkable artistic direction
Manhattan is particularly pleasant to explore.
Excellent mobility
A richer progression than in the first episode.
The world of Control remains just as fascinating
Enemies can sometimes be too resistant.
The first few hours were quite laborious.
Some fights that drag on
A map not always very readable
Some less inspired secondary activities

Review Control Resonant by GamersGlobal
The help mode allows for several adjustments, up to invincibility.
Weapons, skills, and abilities always selectable and resettable without any loss.
Several reset points activated "on the go"
An interesting approach to history...
Wonderfully hectic battles, enriched with tactical elements.
A varied combination of combat, exploration, platforming, and puzzles.
Wide range of side missions and activities in an open world.
Large volume (20-30 hours and more)
Some cool effects
Overall solid graphics and generally clean performance.
Multilingual with German voice output
Punchy sound effects
Appropriate musical accompaniment
By default, only one difficulty level (high)
Possible orientation issues, as the world can sometimes be too labyrinthine.
... but ultimately a disappointing story
Variable game balance (main missions playable alongside different enemy forces)
Many collision errors and excessive use of filters
Particularly the upper world seems generic in some parts.
Dylan is lightly busy in the German version.

Review Control Resonant by Pizza Fria
Open world allows Remedy's ideas to be presented through an even wider field of action.
The artistic direction is wonderful.
There is a certain variety in the choice of your fighting style.
Complete location in Brazilian Portuguese
The graphics of the game were below what I was hoping for.
Despite the variety of combat options, they are not always necessary in practice.
There are several performance issues and bugs present in the game.

Review Control Resonant by Shacknews
Dylan is an intriguing character, narratively & mechanically
The combat and movement abilities offer a lot to explore
Manhattan's different biomes have much to offer
Solid weirdness in the main story and side missions
The boss Resonants are fun battles
General enemies and encounters feel repetitive hours in
No way to make some of the harsher, constant visuals less intense
Buggier than it should have been in very bizarre ways

GameOver
Control Resonant reviewed by GameOver
Review Control Resonant by GameOver
Delicious, ultra-fast traversal (in the second half) with powers reminiscent of Gravity Rush and offering great freedom of movement.
A powerful audiovisual montage, with exceptional dubbing, lively NPCs, and an atmospheric soundtrack.
Some incredible areas, mainly towards the last third of the game, that are 100% the madness of Remedy's open world...
...but also some particularly repetitive, flat, and boring areas in the first third of the game.
Remedy's experience in designing semi open world clearly creates pacing issues in the story, in building and maintaining atmosphere and suspense, and in setting up different quests.
Designing secondary quests that require unnecessary backtracking.
The combat system, although interesting, lacks depth and customization of titles like Devil May Cry, especially when compared to the repetitive enemies.

Staging and cinematography that will take your breath away, worthy of the cinema.
A unique, surreal and brutalist design of Manhattan
Satisfactory displacement
Dynamic and action-packed close combat system
different special skills
Talent tree with enough building options
Visually creative and challenging boss fights like a game.
An exciting mysterious story about Dylan and Jesse.
many crazy side quests
An exceptional soundtrack
pleasant to look at graphically
strong English voice
After up to 35 hours, the combat system is clearly worn out.
Level of difficulty a little challenging at the beginning
Changing skills could be more comfortable.
The German synchronization is rather mixed.
High hardware requirements for smooth FPS
