Remedy Entertainment released Control Ultimate Edition for iPhone and iPad on April 26, 2026 [1].
The launch marks a significant expansion of the game's availability, bringing a high-fidelity console experience to mobile hardware. This move allows a broader audience to access the title without requiring a traditional gaming console or PC.
The game is available through the Apple App Store [1, 2]. Remedy Entertainment said the mobile version is priced at $4.99 [1]. The release aims to expand the game's reach to mobile platforms [4].
Control Ultimate Edition is a comprehensive package of the original game and its expansions. The transition to iOS and iPadOS allows players to engage with the story's supernatural elements on the go—a shift that highlights the increasing power of mobile processors.
Digital Trends said, "I highly recommend it" [3]. The title has already drawn attention for its performance on Apple's mobile ecosystem, as the developer sought to maintain the core experience while optimizing for touch and mobile interfaces.
Remedy Entertainment has a history of pushing technical boundaries with its titles. By bringing the Ultimate Edition to the App Store, the company is leveraging the capabilities of modern iPhones and iPads to deliver a complex, visually demanding game to a handheld format [1, 4].

The arrival of Control Ultimate Edition on iOS indicates a continuing trend of 'AAA' console titles migrating to mobile devices. As Apple's hardware continues to bridge the gap between tablets and PCs, developers are more likely to port full-scale experiences rather than creating stripped-down mobile versions, potentially shifting consumer expectations for mobile gaming.
