CONTROL Resonant Guide | All Main Missions and Quests

Control Resonant follows Dylan Faden as he ventures through a transformed Manhattan while searching for his sister Jesse and investigating the supernatural crisis surrounding the city. The main story is divided across several connected questlines, with some missions becoming available as you progress through the campaign and unlock new abilities.

This guide lists the main missions and quests in Control Resonant in progression order. It covers the quests required to progress through the main story and does not include optional Side Stories.

Contain the Crisis

Contain the Crisis is the primary questline in Control Resonant and forms the backbone of the main campaign. These missions introduce Dylan to the crisis affecting Manhattan and gradually lead him deeper into the game's supernatural events.

The missions in this questline include:

• Orientation
• Welcome to Manhattan
• Evacuation Procedures
• Arish's Briefing
• Plan of Attack
• Power Lines
• Into the Sinkhole
• Enemy of My Enemy
• Recursions and Iterations
• The House in Distress
• The Hedron Link
• Sever the Hedron Links
• Rebuild
• Fight the Core
• The End
• The Beginning

Some objectives may require progress in another main questline before you can continue.

Search for Jesse

The Search for Jesse questline focuses on Dylan's efforts to locate his sister. As you work through these missions, you'll investigate strange occurrences and gain access to areas connected to Jesse's whereabouts.

The main quests in this questline include:

• Jesse Sightings: The Incursion Fault
• Jesse Sightings: The Subway Fault
• Jesse Sightings: Underpass

Progressing through these objectives also plays an important role in exploration. Certain abilities obtained during the questline can allow Dylan to reach previously inaccessible areas.

Defeating Resonants

The Defeating Resonants questline centers around Dylan's encounters with powerful Resonant entities throughout Manhattan. These encounters take him into dangerous areas and form an important part of the game's main progression.

The major Resonant quests include:

• The West Incursion Zone Resonant
• The Central Zone Resonant
• The Underpass Resonant
• The Park
• The Unknown Resonant

Some of these encounters are required to advance the main story, while others become available as you progress through different areas and questlines.

How Main Quest Progression Works

Control Resonant doesn't always present its main quests as one straightforward sequence. You may have multiple main objectives available at once, with progress in one questline unlocking the next step in another.

If you're unsure where to go next, check your current main objectives and look for quests connected to Search for Jesse or the Resonant questline. Some areas and objectives can also require abilities obtained later in the campaign.

It's worth exploring the environment as you progress, but you don't need to complete optional activities to follow the main story.

Are Any Main Quests Missable?

You generally don't need to worry about permanently missing a required main-story quest. The campaign is structured around progression, with mandatory objectives becoming available as you advance.

However, some main objectives can be temporarily unavailable until you complete another required quest. If a mission appears to have stopped progressing, check your other active main quests before assuming you've missed something.

Optional Side Stories are separate from the main campaign and are not required to complete the story.

Do You Need to Complete Every Main Quest?

Yes. The quests listed as part of the main campaign are required to progress through Control Resonant's story.

The game can give you multiple objectives at certain points, so you may have some freedom in deciding which available main quest to tackle first. Completing the required objectives will eventually move the campaign forward.

Side Stories, collectibles, exploration activities, and other optional content aren't necessary for completing the main story.

Final Thoughts

Control Resonant's main campaign is divided across several interconnected questlines rather than one simple mission list. Contain the Crisis, Search for Jesse, and Defeating Resonants all contribute to Dylan's journey and can overlap as you progress through Manhattan.

Keep an eye on your active main quests and don't worry if the next story objective isn't immediately obvious. Some missions require you to make progress through another main questline before continuing.

This guide covers the main missions and quests required for the campaign, while optional Side Stories and other additional content are covered separately.
