Control Resonant Authors Revealed Why Jesse Gave Way to Dylan

Remedy Entertainment explained that Dylan Faden became the main character of Control Resonant because the game's universe is built around the world and paranormal phenomena

Remedy Entertainment explained why Dylan Faden will be the main character in Control Resonant. According to the developers, the Control universe was built from the beginning around the world and paranormal phenomena, not a single character.

Dylan suffers from memory lapses and the consequences of his past actions after being freed from the Hiss's influence. This will also be reflected in the gameplay: while Jesse's abilities were precise and fluid, Dylan is only learning to control his powers. His movements and animations will become more abrupt and unpredictable.

The studio also promises the deepest character customization system in its history. The musical accompaniment will also change: the electronic synthesizers from the first Control will partially give way to analog instruments and vocals.

Another important innovation will be the ability to leave the Oldest House. For the first time, the series will show paranormal phenomena outside the headquarters of the Federal Bureau of Control. Remedy emphasizes that this is not a franchise reboot – the story of Jesse, Dylan, and their shared past will remain the core of the plot.
