Control Resonant Gravity Anomalies & Puzzle Traversal

Quick answer

Gravity anomalies are a confirmed traversal, puzzle and combat mechanic in Control Resonant. They distort vertical and horizontal planes, changing how Dylan moves through Manhattan and how players read an arena or environmental challenge.

How gravity changes exploration

The game presents Manhattan as a geophysical nightmare where natural laws have been violated. Familiar streets, buildings and directions may no longer behave normally. Dylan’s dash, double jump and brief levitation provide tools for crossing gaps and navigating vertical spaces.

Puzzle role

Official coverage confirms puzzles and says gravity adds additional dimensions to them. No named puzzle or universal solution pattern is public. Individual walkthroughs need exact start points, visual states and input sequences from the final game.

Combat role

Gravity distortion also creates tactical decisions. Height, attack direction, airborne movement and environmental objects can change how Dylan closes distance or avoids threats. That complements the melee-centered momentum loop rather than existing only as traversal scenery.

Do traversal powers carry into New Game Plus?

No. Traversal abilities are tied to story progression and do not carry over, even though combat abilities, Talents, Artifacts and Aberrant upgrades do. This prevents late-game movement from bypassing the intended sequence of world unlocks.

For the confirmed movement inputs, see dash, double jump and levitate. The environmental combat guide covers tactical use of the same shifting spaces.
