In Control you take the role of Jesse Faden who is tasked with freeing the building that is the Federal Office of Control from the clutches of a hostile force called the Hiss. Jesse has three supernatural abilities which she can call upon to help make her objective easier, these are telekinesis, flying, and quick jumping and when combined can form strong combos. This What are Jessie Faden's Abilities guide will help you understand what they are and how to best use them.
Telekinesis
Telekinesis is the power to manipulate objects and matter with one's mind and Jessie can use it to pick up objects and throw them at the enemy in order to stun them. She also uses telekinesis to create temporary shields by picking up any debris that is around to form a shield that can protect her from projectiles.
Flying
Flying is basically Jessie's ability to levitate upwards which enables her to assess the situation from a different perspective. In time Jessie will acquire the ability to use telekinesis simultaneously with flying and be able to attack enemies from above with any objects she finds.
Quick Jumping
Jesse also has the ability to jump quickly over short distances which she can use to good effect to escape from danger. Quick jumping used in combination with flying will allow Jessie to perform strong attacks against the enemy.
As you progress through the game Jessie will recieve experience which you can use to purchase new skills which will enable you to gain new abilities that will make gameplay easier.
