CONTROL 2: Xbox Series S/X, PS5 & PC

Remedy Announces Control 2 for PlayStation 5, Xbox Series, and PC

Revealed in a blog post, Remedy and 505 Games are co-developing and co-publishing the sequel which was previously known as Codename Heron and thought to be a spin-off rather than a second mainline game.

"With Control 2, we’ll take another leap into the unknown," said game director Mikael Kasurinen on Remedy's website.. "It’ll be an unexpected journey. It’ll take a while, but to put it mildly, this is the most exciting project I’ve ever worked on. It’s still early days, but it will be worth the wait."

We have signed an agreement with 505 Games to co-develop and co-publish Control 2, a sequel to Control. Read the announcement: https://t.co/UD1iFHvCeH

This is a very exciting moment for us! Mikael Kasurinen, Game Director of the franchise, tells more: https://t.co/KJCHIWgBlU pic.twitter.com/TuTEMr1tjv

Remedy confirmed earlier in November that Control 2 is still in the concept stage, meaning the game hasn't entered active development and is therefore likely still years away.It has a budget of €50 million (around $52 million), which is up significantly from the original game's $30 million. For context, The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt cost $81 million while Red Dead Redemption cost between $80 and $100 million.

It's not the only Control game in development, however, as Codename Condor is an upcoming four player, cooperative PvE title that was announced in summer 2021.

Re: CONTROL 2: Xbox Series S/X, PS5 & PC

In Remedy's latest financial report, CEO Tero Virtala provided updates on the games Remedy has in development, including Alan Wake II, Control 2, and Max Payne 1&2.

According to Virtala, both Control 2 and the Max Payne 1&2 remakes have progressed to the proof-of-concept stage. "Control 2, which moved into the proof-of-concept stage in January, has progressed well," Virtala said. "During the first quarter, the development team focused on world building and gameplay mechanics. In addition, we have been developing the visual target of the game"

Virtala also provided brief updates on Codename Condor, a co-op multiplayer game set in the world of Control, and Codename Vanguard, Remedy's free-to-play co-op game. Condor is making "steady progress" in the proof of concept stage, and the team has "proven key designs for gameplay and have found new ways to use existing assets and locations from the world of the original Control." Vanguard remains in the proof-of-concept stage, with focus being placed on core gameplay, the game's core loop, and meta game designs.
