Following up on our first look at a Fault, which is how Control Resonant refers to its dungeons, IGN First has released some new boss fight gameplay. The Deserter is one of the Resonants, ominous figures wielding exceptional power, and is seemingly responsible for a factory on the verge of exploding.
Naturally, Dylan confronts it, and to say it’s massive would be an understatement. While the fight starts pretty slowly, as the player avoids the lava streams it spews, the Deserter gets a bit more creative. From launching fiery projectiles to stabbing you with the many red-hot pipes protruding from its body, it’s an encounter to take seriously.
The sections before it are also worth noting, as Dylan takes out a group of Hiss and eventually solves a puzzle to access the factory. On the first floor, even more enemies assail him, and we see the many Aberrant forms come into play. Dylan may or may not cry when it’s all said and done, but he’s got the combat prowess to handle himself (especially without needing to parry).
All of this only makes the wait for Control Resonant’s September 24th launch that much more difficult. Stay tuned for more details in the meantime, though.
