Control has gone gold, Remedy Entertainment director Mikael Kasurinen announced. That means development is complete and the game is ready for mass production.
“It is done,” Kasurinen said in a tweet. “New IP, new tech, new game structure, new direction, three platforms. And three years. What an achievement from the best dev team on the planet! Kudos for the amazing production team lead by Juha Vainio. They and other heroes prepped the game ready for release in time for all three target platforms.”
