Control Resonant carries an original score and a set of commissioned songs, and Remedy has released enough of both before launch to give the audio side a shape. The score is written by Petri Alanko, the composer behind the studio's previous paranatural work, and the marketing trailers have leaned on two named pieces of music that were written specifically for this game. The soundtrack itself is bundled with one of the editions. For a wider summary of the game, see the Overview.
Score and Composer
Petri Alanko composes the score. He has worked with Remedy Entertainment across several projects and returns for the sequel, keeping the studio's long-running sonic identity in the same hands rather than passing it to a new voice.
The first piece of the score released on its own is "Obsessive Compulsive Order", the music that runs under the announcement trailer. Remedy published it as a standalone track on June 18, 2026, credited to Alanko, which is the studio's usual pattern of letting individual cues out ahead of a full soundtrack release. No track list for the complete score has been published.
Commissioned Songs
Two separate pieces of licensed and commissioned music have appeared in the marketing so far. Both were written for the game rather than picked from an existing catalogue.
Track | Credit | Where It Appeared |
|---|---|---|
Obsessive Compulsive Order | Petri Alanko | Announcement trailer, December 2025; released as a standalone track on June 18, 2026. |
Manalan Mailla | Performed by Vilma Jää; written by Teemu Brunila, Jurek, and Vilma Jää | Paranatural Manhattan trailer, premiered at Summer Game Fest on June 5, 2026; available on major streaming services. |
"Manalan Mailla" is the more unusual of the two. Vilma Jää is a Finnish ethno-pop artist, and the song draws on the Ingrian ensemble runonlaulu tradition: heterophonic choral parts, and lyrics built on alliteration and repetition rather than rhyme. Pairing a Finnish folk-rooted vocal with a trailer about a paranaturally warped Manhattan is a deliberate contrast, and it fits the studio's habit of using a strong vocal track as the spine of a reveal.
Voice and Localisation
The game ships with fifteen supported languages at launch, eight of which carry a full dub: English, French, Italian, German, Spanish (Spain), Japanese, Portuguese (Brazil), and Simplified Chinese. Korean, Spanish (Latin America), Traditional Chinese, Polish, Russian, Turkish, and Ukrainian are text and interface only. Remedy has described Resonant as the most localised game the studio has made, with Chinese and Brazilian Portuguese audio both new for a Remedy title.
The English cast confirmed so far is Sean Durrie as Dylan Faden, Courtney Hope as Jesse Faden, Frankie Kevich as Zoe De Vera, and Matthew Porretta as Dr. Casper Darling. All four were billed on a cast panel at San Diego Comic-Con on July 25, 2026.
One structural choice affects how much dialogue there is. Dylan does not carry the constant internal narration that the first game's protagonist did; he is written to express himself out loud, in conversation, which pushes more of the performance into two-hander scenes with characters like Zoe rather than into voice-over.
Diegetic Audio and Collectibles
Audio logs appear as collectible material scattered through the Manhattan zones, in the tradition of the Bureau's recorded case files. They sit alongside the other side content, and specifics on how many exist or how they are grouped have not been detailed.
Soundtrack as a Product
The original soundtrack is one of the bundled items in the Digital Deluxe Edition rather than a separate purchase announced so far. The other bundle items in that tier are a digital artbook, a starter resource bundle, an Artifact called the Untapped Artifact (Wallet), and an AWE Mission Outfit. Remedy has noted that those bonus items unlock at the end of the first act rather than at the start of a playthrough. Edition contents are laid out in full on the Platforms and Release page.
Unconfirmed Details
A full soundtrack track list, release date, or physical soundtrack edition.
Whether additional guest artists beyond Vilma Jää contribute songs.
Any adaptive or dynamic music system in combat, and how the score reacts to the Aberrant's form changes.
Audio accessibility options such as subtitle sizing, speaker labels, or an audio description track.
Whether the eight dubbed languages all use full performance capture or voice-only sessions.
This page will be updated as the studio publishes more of the score and confirms the remaining audio details.
Chinese Dub
Simplified Chinese is one of the eight languages that ship with full voice acting, and it is a first for the studio. The dub was introduced at ChinaJoy 2026 in a dedicated trailer published on the studio’s Chinese video channel on August 1, 2026, which was the first public airing of any Chinese-language performance from the game.
This is the first game from the studio to ship with Mandarin voice acting at all, so the whole Chinese-language performance is new work rather than a re-record. The individual Chinese cast credits have not been published in a form that can be verified against an official source, so they are left off this page until they are.
Brazilian Portuguese audio is the other new dub language for a game from this studio. The remaining seven supported languages ship as text and interface only; the full split is on Platforms and Release.
