Remedy Entertainment has recently shared another gameplay footage of their upcoming action RPG game, Control Resonant. This time, the main hero is having a massive boss encounter.
The latest gameplay footage introduces The Deserter, a towering Resonant capable of unleashing devastating magma-based attacks. Let’s check out more details in this article.
New massive boss: The Deserter
In the new gameplay footage, The Deserter is introduced as one of the most powerful Resonants in the game.
This boss is massive, and it is barely holding its molten body together while spewing lava everywhere on the battlefield.
In the footage, we can see the protagonist avoiding the pools of molten lava and then carefully learning the boss’s attack patterns. But as the fight progresses, the boss becomes more aggressive and it will force the players to be constantly on the move.
This is what the enemies’ attacks look like:
- Massive lava streams covering large portions of the arena
- Explosive fire projectiles
- Red-hot metal pipes extending from its body to impale nearby enemies
- Powerful area-of-effect attacks that punish careless positioning
Puzzle & exploration in Factory Dungeon
The protagonist Dylan was also seen exploring the dangerous industrial facility, which is overrun by the enemies, before he faced the giant Resonant.
The first battle was against the waves of Hiss and then we saw him solving some environmental puzzles that unlocked the deeper parts of the factory.
These sections reiterate that Control Resonant is not just about boss battles, but involves action, exploration, and solving problems with the environment.
Conclusion
Control Resonant is looking absolutely mind-blowing, and there is no doubt that this is going to be another banger from Remedy Entertainment.
The game will officially launch on September 24, 2026 for XBOX Series X/S, PlayStation 5 and PC.
