Control Resonant Offers 48-Hour Early Access Exclusively on PS5

Remedy's multiplatform action game Control Resonant gives PS5 users preferential treatment with 48 hours of early access by purchasing the $70 digital deluxe edition.

During the PlayStation State of Play event, Control Resonant was featured, revealing that PS5 users who opt for the digital deluxe edition can start playing on September 22, two days earlier than others. This edition also includes bonus content like the Hiss Corruption outfit and Pickpocket's Tool artifact for all platforms. However, PS5 players receive an exclusive Occult outfit. While the digital deluxe edition is priced at $70 across Xbox Series X|S and PC, PS5 stands out as the sole platform offering both early access and the Occult outfit.

Such exclusivity deals are common in the gaming industry, but it's disappointing that PC and Xbox users, despite paying the same price, miss out on content and early access. Additionally, they face the risk of encountering spoilers as they wait for the standard release on September 24. A new story trailer for Control Resonant was also unveiled during the State of Play event.
