Following forecasts from the previous fiscal quarter, Remedy Entertainment has revealed that Control 2 will enter full production later this month. Production pipelines have been established, and the “velocity” of asset creation is verified, with the project ready to scale up.
Announced for Xbox Series X/S, PS5, and PC in November 2022, Control 2 is the sequel to the developer’s acclaimed supernatural action adventure. Details on its story and characters are unknown, but Remedy has confirmed it will be an action RPG. Furthermore, its budget is €50 million, with Annapurna Pictures co-financing half of it.
Control has sold over 4.5 million copies since launching in 2019. It’s available for Xbox One, Xbox Series X/S, Nintendo Switch, PS4, PS5, and PC. Though it didn’t provide any details, Remedy teased an update for early this year, which unlocks “previously released content.” It may or may not provide additional context on an occurrence discovered last November, so stay tuned for details.
