  • In terms of gameplay length, Control offers about 10 to 15 hours for the main story and up to 25 hours with side content.

  • Control exists in a shared Remedy universe with ongoing franchise developments, including a planned Control Resonant release in the 2024–2025 timeframe.

  • Control, Remedy Entertainment’s sci‑fi action-adventure debut, has grown into a franchise with a sequel tentatively titled Control Resonant on the way and a multiplayer spin-off, FBC: Firebreak, released in 2025.

  • The franchise arc continues with an anticipated Control Resonant sequel this year, while FBC: Firebreak has not drawn the same level of acclaim as the main title.

  • For players with limited time, a main playthrough runs about 10 to 15 hours, with roughly 25 hours if you tackle side content.

  • The Ultimate Edition, including two expansions, is offered for free in this promotion, replacing the standard digital storefront version.

  • This promotion creates urgency for subscribers to claim the game before it potentially exits the library, as there’s no certainty it will return.

  • Since its 2019 debut, Control has earned strong critical acclaim, with Metacritic scores in the low to mid‑80s and eight The Game Awards nominations, including Game of the Year, plus Best Art Direction wins.

  • Control released on August 27, 2019, earning widespread praise and earning eight nominations at The Game Awards, including Game of the Year, while winning Best Art Direction.

  • PlayStation Plus Extra and Premium subscribers have a limited window—until May 19—to download and play the Control Ultimate Edition for free from the PlayStation library.

  • The free offer applies to the Ultimate Edition for both PS4 and PS5 players; Essential tier subscribers do not receive this promotion.
