Remedy Entertainment unveiled a brand-new Paranatural Manhattan Trailer for Control Resonant.

The Paranatural Manhattan Trailer reveals more of Control Resonant’s twisted version of the city of New York. The trailer is narrated by Emily Pope, who returns from the original game as the acting director of the Federal Bureau of Control, working closely with main character Dylan Faden.

The trailer features an exclusive song “Manalan Mailla” performed by Finnish ethno-pop artist Vilma Jää. The track, which was composed specifically for CONTROL Resonant, was written by Teemu Brunila, Jurek, and Vilma Jää.

“Manalan Mailla is inspired by the Ingrian ensemble runonlaulu tradition, with its heterophonic choral parts and lyrics based on alliteration and iteration,” said Vilma Jää. “I also included some herding calls in the song, as I just love to sing as high and as loud as possible whenever I get the chance. Working with the music-making superstars Teemu Brunila and Jurek was very inspiring and a huge honour. Together we created something very catchy while still respecting the folklore."

Today, fans can also look forward to listening to the track “Manalan Mailla” on Spotify, Apple Music, and other selected streaming platforms. Follow Vilma Jää on Instagram at @vilma.jaa.
