CONTROL Resonant launches digitally on September 24, 2026 in a simultaneous worldwide unlock — not local midnight. PS5 Digital Deluxe owners get 48-hour early access starting September 22. Physical editions, including the SteelBook, follow on October 15.
Exact unlock time
Digital release is timed to 2:00 PM GMT / 7:00 AM PT / 10:00 AM ET on September 24, 2026 (3:00 PM BST). Because it is one global unlock, changing your console region will not get you in early.
Early access and preload
- PS5 Digital Deluxe early access: September 22, 2026 at the same clock as the worldwide unlock window.
- Preload: PS5 Deluxe from September 20; PS5 Standard / Xbox / PC from September 22. Clear drive space early — PC asks for about 120 GB free SSD.
Platforms at launch
PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, and PC via Steam and the Epic Games Store. GeForce NOW is supported at launch. A Mac version follows later in 2026.
