There is a feeling you occasionally get when you play a great game. A game that randomly invades your thoughts weeks after completion. A game that perfectly balances story, combat and fun. 

You want more. 

That was how I felt after I completed the 2019 game Control. Though I didn’t play it until a few years after its release, I enjoyed almost every aspect of the title, and was excited when I saw the sequel would arrive this year. I preordered a copy, something I rarely do with a video game. When launch day finally arrived, I dove in and was ready for another experience in the world created by the studio Remedy. 

It did not take long for me to realize it was a very different world.
