Control PS4 is now available at Mascom International for KSh 3,800, a 2019 third-person action-adventure built by Remedy Entertainment and published by 505 Games. This single-player disc runs on PlayStation 4 and PlayStation 4 Pro, carrying an ESRB Mature rating for blood, strong language, and violence. You play Jesse Faden, the new Director of the Federal Bureau of Control, battling a reality-warping enemy called the Hiss. The action unfolds inside a shifting skyscraper named the Oldest House. Mascom International stocks the disc at our Nairobi CBD store, Old Mutual Building, First Floor Room 4, Kimathi Street. The title has sold over 6 million copies worldwide.

Control suits PlayStation owners across Kenya who want a story-driven single-player title without paying console-game prices above KSh 6,000. University students in Nairobi, working professionals winding down after Westlands office hours, and weekend gamers in Mombasa or Kisumu all fit the audience. Many Kenyan buyers struggle to find well-reviewed PS4 titles at honest prices, since import markups push many discs past KSh 5,500. Control answers that gap with a 10-to-15-hour main campaign and award-winning design at KSh 3,800.

Where most Nairobi electronics shops sell only the newest releases at peak prices, Mascom International stocks proven titles like Control that hold strong review scores years after launch. The game won over 80 industry awards and earned Game of the Year nominations at The Game Awards 2019. Customers across Kenya rely on our pay-on-arrival delivery, so you inspect the disc before paying a shilling. Visit our Kimathi Street counter to confirm the sealed copy, or order Control for delivery to any of Kenya's 47 counties.

Common Questions About the Control PS4 Game

How much does Control cost for PS4 in Kenya?
Control for PlayStation 4 costs KSh 3,800 at Mascom International. That price covers the standard base game disc, not the expanded version bundling the Foundation and AWE add-ons. Compared to newer PS4 titles selling between KSh 5,500 and KSh 8,000 in Nairobi shops, Control offers a complete single-player campaign at roughly half the cost. The disc plays on any PlayStation 4 or PlayStation 4 Pro console sold in Kenya. You pay on arrival after checking the sealed packaging, whether you collect from our CBD store or receive countrywide delivery.

What kind of game is Control and who developed it?
Control is a third-person action-adventure made by Remedy Entertainment, the Finnish studio behind Max Payne and Alan Wake. Publisher 505 Games released it on 27 August 2019. You control Jesse Faden, who wields a shape-shifting Service Weapon and supernatural abilities like telekinesis and levitation. The game mixes gunplay with destructible environments inside the Oldest House. It runs as a single-player story experience with no online multiplayer, making it well suited to Kenyan homes where data costs make offline gaming the practical choice.

Is Control worth KSh 3,800 in Kenya's market?
Control delivers strong value at KSh 3,800 for any PlayStation 4 owner who enjoys single-player storytelling. The main campaign runs 10 to 15 hours, stretching past 25 hours if you finish side missions. Critics scored the game in the mid-80s on review aggregators, and it collected more than 80 awards. Few PS4 titles in Kenya combine that pedigree with a sub-KSh 4,000 price. Players who want fast online shooters should look elsewhere, but fans of atmospheric, ability-driven combat get full worth here.

How long does Control take to finish?
Control runs roughly 10 to 15 hours for the main story on a first playthrough. Completing optional side quests, the Bureau Alerts, and collectible documents pushes total playtime past 25 hours. The base disc sold at Mascom International does not include the Foundation and AWE expansions, which add several more hours. Difficulty stays moderate, though certain boss fights challenge new players. For Kenyan gamers balancing work or studies, the campaign spreads comfortably across a few weekends without feeling padded or repetitive.

Does Control need an internet connection to play?
Control plays fully offline on PlayStation 4 after the disc installs, which matters for Kenyan households managing Safaricom or Airtel data bundles. The single-player campaign needs no constant connection, so you avoid streaming costs once installed. A one-time system update may download on first launch, and you can fetch that over home WiFi or a hotspot. After setup, the entire story, combat, and exploration run from the local install. This makes Control practical for areas with patchy fibre coverage across upcountry towns.

Will Control work on my PS5?
Control runs on PlayStation 5 through backward compatibility, since the PS5 plays nearly all PS4 disc titles. The standard PS4 disc sold at Mascom International for KSh 3,800 loads on a disc-equipped PS5 and benefits from faster loading on the newer console. The dedicated PS5 native upgrade, however, ships only with the separate expanded release that bundles both add-ons. For owners of the PS5 Digital Edition without a disc drive, this physical copy will not work, so confirm your console model with our team before ordering.

What is the story of Control about?
Control follows Jesse Faden as she enters the Oldest House, the secret headquarters of the Federal Bureau of Control in New York. A hostile force called the Hiss has corrupted staff and twisted reality throughout the building. Jesse becomes Director and uncovers her own buried past while fighting to contain the threat. Writer Sam Lake builds a strange, mystery-driven world full of redacted files and shifting architecture. The narrative rewards players who read documents and explore, blending psychological tension with supernatural action across the campaign.

Why buy Control from Mascom International instead of other Nairobi shops?
Mascom International stocks Control as a sealed disc at a fixed KSh 3,800, with no hidden import surcharge added at checkout. Unlike other electronics retailers in Kenya who quote one price and adjust at the counter, our pricing stays transparent. You pay on arrival after inspecting the packaging, whether collecting at Kimathi Street or receiving delivery. Buyers across Kenya tell us this pay-on-arrival policy removes the risk of paying upfront for unverified game discs. Our CBD desk also handles any disc-defect claims directly.
