Remedy's upcoming Control Resonant is getting a PS5 Steelbook physical edition, and the timing couldn't be more pointed — the announcement lands just as Sony has confirmed it's moving away from physical disc support.
The Steelbook edition was shown off with what appears to be premium packaging, though specific pricing and a confirmed release date for the edition itself weren't detailed in the source. Control Resonant is the standalone follow-up to the 2019 supernatural action game Control, developed by Remedy Entertainment.
The reveal lands at an awkward moment for physical game collectors. Sony recently announced it's ditching disc-based games, a move that's drawn significant backlash from the PlayStation community. Seeing a Steelbook edition promoted for a PS5 title right in the middle of that controversy is a sharp irony — physical editions are increasingly a niche product on a platform whose manufacturer is actively stepping back from the format.
No further details on availability or pricing were confirmed at the time of writing.
