Remedy released Control: Ultimate Edition on iPhone and iPad via the App Store on April 22, 2026, priced at $4.99. (gematsu.com) The App Store listing marks the game as a universal purchase across iPhone, iPad, and Mac and the package includes the full base game plus The Foundation and AWE expansions. (gematsu.com) Remedy says it rebuilt the UI and controls for touch, added external controller support, and the mobile download requires roughly 45GB of storage (45.12GB listed on the App Store). (gadgets360.com) Apple-device support skews to recent silicon: the game needs at least an A17 Pro on iPhone and accepts M-series or A17 Pro iPads, and the port renders with Metal and supports ray tracing on compatible hardware. (engadget.com) (gematsu.com) The iOS arrival follows Control’s macOS debut in 2025 and joins other recent AAA Apple ports such as Resident Evil, Death Stranding, and Assassin’s Creed Mirage. (engadget.com) Pricing provenance is unclear: GamingTrend reported an intended $9.99 list price while multiple App Store listings showed $4.99 at launch, and outlets noted no immediate explanation whether that is a permanent price or a promotion. (apple.gadgethacks.com) Early hands-on coverage says recent Apple silicon (M4, A17 Pro) delivers a smooth experience, but reviewers recommend physical controllers for the best play and warn older devices may struggle with performance and battery drain. (engadget.com) “CONTROL Ultimate Edition is now on iPhone and iPad! We built it specifically for mobile: 🕹️ Touch controls 👾 Reworked interface and gameplay systems,” Remedy wrote when announcing the launch on its official account. (gadgets360.com)
