Launch verified Updated Oct 3, 2026
CONTROL Resonant achievements (Xbox / Steam / Epic) map to the same list as PS5 trophies — 50 trophies on PS5, 49 achievements on Xbox/PC. Platinum / 100% is roughly 40–50 hours (faster with Assist Mode). Difficulty and Assist Mode do not lock trophies or achievements. One playthrough + free-roam cleanup is enough — NG+ not required.
Roadmap
- Story first (20–30h) — unlock all zones, Shift / Reach, and story trophies.
- Kill every Resonant — needed for Gap Mural / Graffiti Artist with the Hedron kill.
- Side quests + collectibles (cleanup) — Pope, Mold, dogs, Thresholds, Altered Items, Sketchbook, Hideouts, FBC Tasks.
- Combat / craft mop-up — Dominance timer, Command a Breaker, Artifacts, Aberrant Strength.
Story trophies (unmissable)
- Rescue Mission — Evacuation Procedures
- Enemy of My Enemy — CFD mission
- Sibling Reunion — all Fault rituals / House in Distress — Underpass Fault
- The First Link — The Hedron Link
- Stop it at the Source — Sever the Hedron Links (needs Pope’s Research)
- Repeating, Refracting — kill the Hedron — Ending
