If you're eager to get your hands on Remedy's Control: Ultimate Edition for Xbox Series X or Xbox Series S, you'll unfortunately now have to wait a little longer as it's been delayed until early 2021.
In a tweet, the developer explained that the team needed a little more time on the game in order for the final quality to be "awesome", and thanked fans for their understanding and patience.
As controversially revealed a few months ago, the Ultimate Edition of Control will be the only version that will get a free next-generation upgrade, with the standard version simply being playable via backwards compatibility.
Disappointed by this, or are you happy to wait? Let us know down in the comments.

Bit disappointing; I'd just bought Control ahead of the launch of the Series X, so I might need to keep it wrapped until 2021. I'd rather they get it right, though.
One thing springs to mind....
Facepalm
Why Remedy and 505 Games can’t get their $?!& together is beyond me.
Have they worked out how to do it as an upgrade for existing owners yet? Or are they still hiding behind the lies of they can't because they want more money
I'm all for developers taking their time to avoid crunch, but for them to drop this a few days ahead of launch is a bit rubbish. I very nearly bought this alongside Yakuza Like a dragon.
It will give me time to save since i have to buy this game and dlc for the third time
If I rebuy I'll rebuy on Steam. I have it on my Xbone which I repaired to finish this game. Kinda tempted to restart and get SSD speeds and ray tracing on Steam, or run it on my potato laptop, like if the Switch version didn't depend on the cloud. No matter what I ain't buying the console version a second time.
Since I’m not going to rebuy, they can cancel it for all I care. And they lost potential revenue from DLC from me because of their stupid decision to double dip on early adopters.
It is hard to have understanding for 505 with how they have handled upgrades. Anti-consumer practices and lack of good will is going to bite them in the long run.
