Behind Control Resonant's art and tech
PlayStation Blog spoke to Remedy's team about the art and tech behind Control Resonant. Protagonist Dylan is animated to look vulnerable rather than powerful, since the team wanted players to feel that everything he does costs him effort despite his abilities. The Manhattan-inspired setting mixes ordinary streets with paranormal transformations, and the boss designs lean on medieval and church architecture. On PS5 that meant bigger zones, more physics objects, and DualSense haptic feedback tied to abilities, so players can feel their way through a fight rather than watching the interface.
