Remedy Entertainment’s Control has reached a new sales milestone. It’s sold over three million copies since launching in August 2019 with over €92 million in revenue, according to parent company Digital Bros in its half-year fiscal year 2022/2023 report.

Control focuses on Jesse Faden, who ventures into the Central Bureau of Control, aka The Oldest House, while an entity known as the Hiss invades. With mind-bending environments and visuals, stellar gunplay and an intriguing story, it received much critical praise. You can read our review of the Ultimate Edition for PS5 here.
