Remedy has released the newest patch for their strangely compelling action-adventure, Control. The new Control April 2020 Update patch includes a variety of fixes. It’s mostly a bug fix patch, and includes fixes for some issues with various moments during gameplay, as well as other changes to minor elements.
The majority of the patched issues involve glitches with assets not rendering properly or not working correctly. For example, various issues with the main character model and certain enemies have been fixed. The player should now be able to progress through the story without getting blocked by certain bugs, like in the new Foundation DLC.
