'The Complete Set' quest walkthrough in Control Resonant

Remedy Entertainment's latest release on Steam, Control Resonant, has proven to be the company's most successful launch to date. Unveiled on September 24, the sequel to their award-winning 2019 shooter has quadrupled the peak player count of its predecessor within just a few days of its release. Sitting at number 10 on Steam's sales chart, Control Resonant has surpassed its own success, outperforming its immediate predecessor's popularity.

As of now, the game boasts a Very Positive rating from over 4,000 reviews. Critics have commended Control Resonant for its exceptional writing, visual design, music, and action sequences. Even those who obtained the game through unauthorized means expressed a willingness to purchase it to support the developers. The game's success extends beyond PC, ranking among PlayStation 5's top 10 sellers in 20 different regions.

This achievement is particularly noteworthy given the competitive landscape, with numerous major releases concurrently hitting the market. If Control Resonant can sustain its sales momentum on Steam, it could serve as a compelling contrast to Remedy's past exclusive ventures on the Epic Games Store, such as Alan Wake 2, which took over a year to recoup its costs despite favorable reviews.

Looking ahead, Remedy is set to embark on new projects, including a remake of the first two Max Payne games and adaptations of Control and Alan Wake for television and film, although specific details remain undisclosed.
