24th June 2019 Remedy To Livestream Control's "Directorial Override" Mission Tomorrow

Mark your calendars for tomorrow (25th June) as Remedy has just officially announced their next livestream in which they will explore the Directorial Override mission from Control.

Remedy's Associate Community Manager Vida Starčević will once again be hosting, and she will be joined by Thomas Puha (Communications Director), Mikael Kasurinen (Game Director), and Brooke Maggs (Narrative Designer) as they explore a full mission and potential side missions from the new demo.

The broadcast will be shown via the studio's Twitch channel on Tuesday 7th May 2019 at 7pm EEST / 9am PST / 9 BST (GMT +1).

Directorial Override was the mission shown to members of the press and influencers at E3 2019. While an eighteen-minute video from the level was released during the event via Gamespot, post-event Thomas joined actors and streamers, Amelia Rose Blaire and Bryan Dechart, for a special two-hour showcase broadcasted on their Twitch channel. It's that same preview which will be played live tomorrow evening.

For those who are avoiding spoilers: If you're avoiding new details but you're interested in checking it out later, don't worry. The video should be able to watch via the studio's YouTube channel and will be archived there until after you've played the game. However, we know for certain that Amelia's and Bryan's livestream definitely will be available, having been uploaded to their channel last week.
