Imminent Control Resonant Updates To Add Unlimited "New Game++" and Photo Mode

Control Resonant launched on September 24 to a rather positive reception, and less than a week after launch, Remedy, the studio behind the game, is promising an October update that makes sizeable changes to gameplay, including adding what it calls "New Game++" mode, which is likely the most interesting part of the blog detailing the upcoming update.

At the time of writing, Control Resonant has a New Game+ mode, which allows players to play through the story once more before needing to start a new savegame. With New Game++, Remedy will allow players to "start NG+ run after NG+ run, without needing to erase all your progress," and thoroughly explore the world and lore. New Game++ is slated to land in Control Resonant sometime in October, although no specific launch date has been announced yet.
The current version of New Game+ enables you to beat the game only once more, but we're preparing an update that will add... wait for it... New Game++, which means you can start NG+ run after NG+ run, without needing to erase all your progress. Do 665 runs if you want!
In addition to the infinitely replayable game mode, Control Resonant will also be getting a photo mode, which, the studio says, wasn't available at launch because the developers "needed to prioritize making sure the game was in the best possible shape." However, Remedy also said in the update that it has been working on the photo mode for quite some time, and its developers consulted with "talented virtual photographers," during the photo mode development process. Photo mode is slated to arrive in Control Resonant sometime in November. So far, these are the only post-launch plans Remedy has revealed for Control Resonant, but there will likely be more further down the line.

I still have issues with the direction they moved the game. Watched the trailers, watched the gameplay segment before the credits intro and I'm still undecided whether it does anything for me. Original Control felt more tactical and up close with adaptable pistol Jesse had where Resonant feels more like some sort of Spider Man or Batman style of game which is something I don't really particularly like. Just the whole running around and jumping while fighting in 3rd person just doesn't feel good or right. Also the whole outdoor setup just doesn't work for me. The interior of The Oldest House was actually really cool. The city, for what I've seen just feels generic half open world. And I hate that to a point I don't want to buy the game and "try it".

I liked the original Control very much, i have played it like 3 times from start to finish including all DLCs.
But i am skeptical for this one.
