Remedy Entertainment is pursuing a multimedia expansion strategy for Control under new CEO Jean-Charles Gaudechon, who has publicly stated the franchise underperformed commercially. The upcoming project Control Resonant is part of this push.
Remedy Entertainment's new CEO, Jean-Charles Gaudechon, told The Game Business that the studio's flagship titles, including Control, should have sold more. The admission came as Gaudechon outlined a strategy of IP franchising and multimedia expansion to reach a broader audience. The plan includes the upcoming project Control Resonant, which is part of this cross-media push.
The franchise's commercial underperformance is a central concern for the new leadership. Gaudechon's public remarks signal a shift toward more aggressive marketing and adaptation of Remedy's properties across different media formats. The strategy aims to expand the audience for Control beyond its current player base.
No additional details about Control Resonant, such as its format, release window, or platform, have been disclosed in the available stories. The franchise's status is defined by this stated commercial disappointment and the announced multimedia strategy, with no further updates on development or publishing.

Piccoma, the Kakao-owned digital comics and novels platform, announced on April 27 that it will introduce a short-form animation category called "ANIME" in late May. The category has entered a pre-launch phase, with early preview events letting select users watch upcoming titles before the official rollout. Branded as "Watch Piccoma," the new section marks the platform's expansion into serialized video content. The animations will be based on works originally published on Piccoma, including manga, webtoons, and web novels. The production process uses AI technology in certain stages while keeping human oversight for creative direction and quality control. Piccoma will adopt an episode-based monetization system similar to its existing content model: users can rent individual episodes or access select content for free through the "Wait Until Free" model, which unlocks episodes after a 23-hour waiting period. Six webtoons will have anime adaptations available at launch: The Viridescent Tiara, The Reincarnated Assassin Is a Swordmaster, Post-Possession Damage Control, Jack Be Invincible, Why Yuria Hid Her Wealth, and Destined to Be an Outcast. The anime are only available within the Piccoma app, but video previews for each title are on Piccoma's website.
