Control: Ultimate Edition has made its debut on iPhone and iPad at a price of $5, following its announcement in October. This version includes all downloadable content, ensuring players receive the complete experience as they navigate through its unique environments filled with challenging puzzles and enemies.
Developed by Remedy Entertainment, this adaptation is designed for touchscreen devices, featuring a revamped user interface and controls. The game is compatible with iPhones equipped with an A17 Pro chip, including models from the iPhone 15 Pro and Pro Max to the iPhone 16 and 17 series. Various iPad models with M-series chips or the A17 Pro are also supported, while the standard iPad remains incompatible due to its A16 processor.
Players have reported a smooth gaming experience on devices like the new iPad Air, which uses the M4 chip. However, a noted control issue requires players to hold down the L3 button while sprinting, differing from other platforms. The release of Control exemplifies Apple's ongoing efforts to attract developers to its gaming ecosystem, with a growing library of titles available for iOS and Mac.
