[GDC 2019] ‘Control’ Will be an Epic Games Store Exclusive For a Year
In a decision that will no doubt annoy some people, Remedy and 505 Games have announced that the upcoming psychological thriller Control is joining the list of Epic Games Store exclusives. The deal is a 12-month exclusive, so after that, the game will (presumably) be available for other platforms.
Erroneously, the trailer states that the game was available for pre-purchase, but Epic Games clarified in a tweet immediately after the trailer that this was not the case just yet.
When a secret government agency is infiltrated by an otherworldly threat, it falls on Jesse Faden to take back Control.

This comes along with the news that Quantic Dream will have ports of Heavy Rain, Beyond: Two Souls and Detroit: Become Human available as exclusives on the platform, as well.
Control is expected to release for PlayStation 4, Xbox One, and PC later this year.
All of us here at Bloody Disgusting are deeply sad to learn that actress Daveigh Chase has passed away at just 35 years old. The news was first reported by TMZ this afternoon.
The outlet reports, “The actress’ boyfriend, Roy Hernandez, tells TMZ … Daveigh died Tuesday from meningitis and an infection in her blood, which caused her to have septic issues and led to her body shutting down.” The website’s report continues, “We’re told Daveigh had been admitted to a hospital in Los Angeles earlier this month because of malnutrition.”
Here in the horror world, a young Daveigh Chase memorably played Samara in Gore Verbinski’s 2002 horror movie The Ring, the American remake of the Japanese horror hit.
Far outside the horror world, Daveigh Chase voiced Lilo in the 2002 animated movie Lilo & Stitch, a character she continued to voice in various animated spinoff projects.
Chase also appeared as Samantha Darko in the 2001 classic Donnie Darko, later returning to play the sister of Donnie Darko in the 2009 spinoff movie titled S. Darko.
Daveigh Chase’s resume also includes roles on the TV shows “Sabrina the Teenage Witch,” “Charmed,” “ER,” “Touched by an Angel,” “CSI,” “Cold Case,” and 32 episodes of “Big Love.”
Chase appeared in the films The Rats, Silence, Carolina, Beethoven’s 5th, Yellow, Little Red Wagon, Transference, Killer Crush, Jack Goes Home, and American Romance.
We send our deepest condolences to Daveigh Chase’s family, friends, and fans.
