Control First DLC The Foundation Releases This Month

The first DLC for Control is out in the next two weeks. ‘The Foundation’ will take players beneath the Bureau and back into the oldest house itself to uncover even more mysteries. Playing as Jesse again, we can expect everything to be just as bonkers as the base game. We knew that Remedy is working on 4 new projects after Control two of which are expansions for the game, The Foundation being the first and the mysteriously titled AWE (Altered World Events, but somehow linked to the Alan Wake series) being the second.

Remedy’s Control released some great news via a Tweet today on their official account as their long and highly anticipated first expansion, The Foundation is out March 26.

“The Foundation will delve into the history of the Oldest House. At the request of the ever-mysterious Board, Jesse must explore what lies beneath the Bureau as she returns order to the Foundation and the Oldest House itself. Expect things to get weird.”

The small video teaser above doesn’t give much away at all, just Jesse Fadden our main protagonist talking about the missing Helen Marshall, which seems she is missing down in maintenance. For anyone that hasn’t played Control before I highly recommend that you do, MEF TECH had the pleasure of reviewing this title on release and it is easily ranked as one of the best games of 2019.

In 2019, Control won Android Central’s Game of the Year award, as staff writer Jennifer Locke wrote that “Remedy came out of (seemingly) nowhere and surprised all of us with Control. It’s a game that blends corporate satire, unknowable cosmic horror, great characters, and varied gameplay into one of the most unique AAA titles we played this year.”

As for Control’s second expansion, titled AWE, there’s currently no release date beyond a vague “mid 2020” window. We do, however, have an inkling of what’s in store, with its very familiar promotional artwork (not to mention that name) strongly suggesting players will finally be getting reacquainted with Remedy’s much-loved master of horror, Alan Wake.

Control: The Foundation is out on March 26th for PC and consoles. Both expansions will be available to purchase separately or as part of Control’s £19.99 season pass on Xbox One, PlayStation 4, and the Epic Store.
