A while ago, Remedy Entertainment announced that they were working on a few things within the world of Control, one of them was multiplayer focused and the other was called Codename Heron. It has now be revealed that Codename Heron is Control 2.

Mikael Kasurinen, Game Director of the Control franchise released the below statement about the reveal of the new game.

With Control, we leaped into the unknown. We wanted to create something new. Something different and unexpected. A world like no other. Thank you, the audience, for making Control such a success for us.

With Control 2, we’ll take another leap into the unknown. 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.

Best,

Mikael Kasurinen

The game is being made by Remedy, but once again they have partnered with 505 Games to help make it a reality. The game will be available on PC, PlayStation 5, and Xbox Series X|S, and it will be built on Remedy’s proprietary Northlight® engine and tools. Remedy will publish the game on the PC platform and 505 Games will publish it on the console platforms. The project is currently in concept stage.

There is no date for it yet, but given its early stage of development, that is not surprising. Alan Wake 2 is the game that will likely be released next from the studio.
