Here's What We Know
Control was released in 2019. During this time, 3 million copies were sold, and the game earned $98 million, although the project budget was slightly less than 30 million. Digital Bros is excited about the success of Control, noting that the game was loved by critics and players alike, nominated for eleven BAFTA Games Awards and won more than twenty Game of the Year awards.
