Remedy Entertainment's most recent work is an experience focused on the narrative that does not forget its playable facet.
There are few video games that have been taken to the big screen, and although a good handful of them have been a disappointment, the film adaptations of successful titles do not stop, despite the problems that some productions are having, such as Uncharted's. Control, the new from Remedy Entertainment, does not exist as a film project, but Gary Whitta, screenwriter of Rogue One: A Star Wars Story, would like to transfer Jesse Faden's story to a movie.
This has been seen in a retuit that has made one of his followers. "What video game could be the best movie?" Asks the user, and then add. "And which one would you like to write?" The screenwriter is clear: "Control, and yes," he would like to write the script. Thomas Puha, director of communication at Remedy Entertainment, has been quick and has not taken long to send a very direct message: "Let's talk."
Lets talk @garywhitta 🙏

A study focused on the narrative
Remedy Entertainment is a studio that highlights film work, as all its projects have important narrative components. In fact, Quantum Break tried to redefine this vision by including a television series in the game itself, which told the story from the point of view of the villains. Depending on the decisions, the argument changed in one way or another, something that also affected the series.
Control, meanwhile, puts the player in the shoes of Jesse Faden, a young woman who has been looking for her kidnapped brother since childhood. A terrible finding causes the Federal Control Agency to persecute and end up making him a prisoner. However, women find the headquarters of this body. Surprisingly, she becomes the director, at which time she will discover that nothing is what it seems.
The title, available on PS4, Xbox One and PC, went on sale last August 2019, with 505 Games.
