“Unlocking New Adventures: Hideo Kojima’s Mission Awaits in the Free Update for Remaining Edition”

Clear up has released a complimentary content update for its Control Ultimate Edition.

This update – featuring access to Dr. Yoshimi Tokui’s Guided Imagery Experience that includes a special Hideo Kojima – is launching first for players on PC (Steam and Epic Games Store, with GOG to follow later) today.

Subsequently, it will be accessible to players who own Control Ultimate Edition on either PS5 or Xbox Series X/S consoles. “We have a small team dedicated to these updates, so we want to space them out to allow us time to address any potential issues that may arise,” the developer stated, noting that this may also update with dates as appropriate. “We value your understanding!”
