Control Resonant’s Fancy PS5 Steelbook Edition Flaunted in the Wake of Sony Ditching Discs
Push Square has spotlighted Remedy Entertainment's Steelbook edition of its forthcoming action RPG Control Resonant, noting that the promotion arrives shortly after Sony confirmed it will stop producing PlayStation discs. The article suggests the timing is largely coincidental — the studio is simply advertising its game rather than making a statement about physical media — but it lands amid renewed interest in collectible physical editions as the disc era winds down.
Sony is not ending PlayStation discs until the start of 2028, leaving roughly 18 months in which new games can still be bought physically. Control Resonant is due for release on 24th September 2026, and its Steelbook edition packages the disc in a metallic case alongside a fold-out poster and a selection of art prints. The author notes a recent hands-on preview left them feeling confident about the game, while the comments section descends into a lively debate over the value, ownership and environmental impact of physical versus digital games.
