Control Ultimate Edition Launches on iPhone and iPad

Step into the shifting halls of the Oldest House with controls and gameplay rebuilt for touch

(Espoo, Finland – April 22, 2026) – Remedy Entertainment today announces the award-winning supernatural action-adventure is coming to iPhone and iPad. Following the release of the Mac version last year, Control Ultimate Edition for iPhone and iPad is now available on the App Store as a universal purchase. Control Ultimate Edition leverages Apple’s latest hardware and software technologies to deliver responsive controls, stunning visuals and performance on mobile.

Enter the Oldest House as Jesse Faden, the new Director of the Federal Bureau of Control, a secretive government agency under siege by an otherworldly threat. Reality is unstable, environments shift without warning, and everything is your weapon.

Originally released in 2019 and the winner of over 80 awards, Control is a visually stunning third-person action-adventure known for its distinctive world, intense combat, and layered storytelling. The Ultimate Edition includes the base game and both expansions, The Foundation and AWE, delivering the complete experience in one package, now fully playable on the go.

Built specifically for mobile, Control Ultimate Edition reimagines how players interact with its world. Touch controls, interface, and gameplay systems have been reworked to provide precision, clarity, and responsiveness on smaller screens – without losing the intensity and unpredictability of the original experience.

On supported iPhone and iPad models*, the game also features hardware-accelerated ray tracing, bringing enhanced lighting, reflections, and visual fidelity to the shifting environments of the Oldest House.

Power in Your Hands: Wield the Service Weapon and paranatural abilities through touch controls designed to feel immediate and intuitive, with refined aiming and contextual actions that keep combat fluid and responsive.

Everything is Your Weapon: Unleash destruction through transforming weaponry and telekinetic powers, turning the world around you into a lethal weapon.

Uncover the Mysteries: Dive into a deep supernatural story filled with unexpected characters and bizarre events, as you search for your missing brother and uncover the truth behind the Bureau.

20th April 2026 Posts & Artwork Celebrating Quantum Break 10 Years On

Earlier this month, Remedy's sci-fi action thriller, Quantum Break, turned ten! To celebrate, there was a fresh wave of love for the title online. We saw posts from all over, from people who worked on the project and from the community. Below is a collection of some that were posted on the anniversary.

On the developers' side, Mikko Rautalahti (Story Team Manager on Quantum Break) reflected on the game's journey both for the studio and personally. We also heard from Amelia Rose Blaire Dechart, who played Amy Ferrero, about how it felt to travel farther from home than she had ever been. And finally, there was Shawn Ashmore, who played Jack Joyce, on the title's enduring legacy. 

Quantum Break has just now turned 10. Somehow, a decade has slipped past. Wild. A couple of thoughts about the game...

18th April 2026 Final 24 Hours! Win a Rare Quantum Break Chronon Field Regulator Keyring

There are only twenty-four hours left in our Quantum Break giveaway!

To celebrate the game's 10th anniversary, we are giving away a rare Countermeasure keyring. These were never made available for purchase and appeared only at one or two promotional (and likely press) events in Europe.

These keyrings are definitely sneaky! We followed Quantum Break through from announcement to post-launch news, wrapping up each promotional event stop. We knew about the stickers, lanyards, t-shirts, waterbottles, and trading cards that were given away... but we didn't know about this until years after the game launched. Later, we learned that they were only accessible through an internal official Microsoft store page for marketers.

So, what about the keyring itself? It's hefty, made of metal, and recreated to resemble the CFR (aka the Countermeasure) shown in the game. It's not a direct replica; I noticed it has a repeating pattern on the sides, whereas the in-game model shows some variation in elements like the display and lights. It's not the kind of thing that you notice unless you're really examining it, and it does look very good! As it's metal, it also has some heft, perfect as a paperweight if you don't want to risk putting it on a bag. As it's a promotional piece, it also has the Quantum Break logo engraved on the side. 

For the giveaway, we want to hear your standout moment from the game. It could be a quote, a scene, or a character.

Submissions can be sent in to: Facebook, Instagram, Bluesky, or Twitter. You can also email in your entry to alanwake.thesuddenstop(at)gmail.com.

17th April 2026 Poets of the Fall Releases New Single, Black Waters Celebrating 20 Years Since Carnival of Rust

This morning, Poets of the Fall, the real-life band behind Old Gods of Asgard, released their latest single, Black Waters! Originally intended as a potential track for their 2006 album, Carnival of Rust, the band revisited and developed it to mark the album's 20th anniversary. 

The single is paired with a new music video, thematically reminiscent of Cradle in Love and Moonlight Kissed, and featuring the full band. Once again, Miika Hakala returned to the helm as director, in a collaboration which has spanned almost a decade. For the beautiful internal shots, the team travelled a little further out, recording at the stunning Tervakoski Manor in Janakkala. 

The track will be a part of a special Carnival of Rust 20th anniversary vinyl, sold at the Backstage Rockshop, and set to be released on May 8th 2026. The album consists of thirteen songs across two vinyls, housed in a gatefold sleeve. On the addition of the new track, the listing reads, "The anniversary pressing features a previously unreleased single, 'Black Waters', presented as a final added chapter to the album’s story. Unearthed from the original recording sessions and completed in the present day, the track feels less like an outtake and more like a voice that finally found its moment."

Alan Wake and Control fans will likely also know Poets of the Fall by their fictional alter-ego, Old Gods of Asgard. The group was founded in 2003, debuting with Late Goodbye, as heard in Max Payne 2. With over two decades of wonderful music, Carnival of Rust remains a standout in their collection and a fan favourite. It was the album and song that proved that the band had a future and an eager audience, standing on its own. With Carnival of Rust, Poets of the Fall reached high in the domestic charts, where it remained for several months, received awards for both the album and the single, and built on their successes from Signs of Life.

Black Water Lyrics

Sunlight, the peace is broken, I'm awakened, by its spear

Dark sight, sees only sorrows, and corrodes, till nothing's clear

Hold on let me think this through, I still remember you as you were

Black waters, flow in this river, is it the end it holds beneath, or my deliverance

Black waters, carry me over, where every tear is a kiss of forgiveness

Black waters, hungry fathoms, we make strange lovers

Morning, has won the duel, of renewal we're made to chase

Bewitching as by rule us to don our unblemished grace

And all the things we left unsaid, like fallen leaves lay dead, cos you're not there

Hold on let me think this through, I still remember you and the way we were

Black waters, flow in this river, is it the end it holds beneath, or my deliverance

Black waters, carry me over, where every tear is a kiss of forgiveness

Twilight, just a token, a softly spoken, symbol of peace

Go on, let nothing hold you down, no regrets, unbound, walk on air

Black waters, flow in this river, is it the end it holds beneath, or my deliverance

Black waters, carry me over, where every tear is a kiss of forgiveness

Black waters, hungry fathoms, we make strange lovers

We make strange lovers
