Remedy has just released the March 2020 Update for CONTROL. As promised, this new patch adds support for NVIDIA’s DLSS 2.0 tech. Moreover, it improves the readability of the map, adds button toggle options for Launch and Aim and revises the ability tree.

Alongside these additions, this new patch adds the option to redistribute previously spent Ability Points. It also adds the Shield Rush ability upgrade to the Shield ability, as well as the functionality to zoom in on collectable documents for improved readability.

Naturally, this update also comes with some bug fixes. For instance, it fixes an issue where anything the player did during the Former boss fight broke the floor. It also fixes the issue when Expedition modifiers didn’t apply to Seized enemies.

As always, Epic Games Store will download this latest update. Below you can also find its complete changelog.
