Control Resonant: The Incursion Fault complete walkthrough

'The Incursion Fault' is a main mission in Control Resonant that unlocks the game's Shift navigation ability — a skill you'll rely on for the rest of the campaign. The mission starts shortly after you enter the West Incursion Zone, but you can't progress until you've pushed deeper into the area. The key milestone is reaching the parking garage, which serves as the mission's true starting point.

Here are the five main objectives in order:

1. Find the keys to the parking garage
2. Investigate the vision of Jesse
3. Enter the Fault
4. Find and talk to Jesse
5. Help Jesse complete the ritual

Get the parking garage keys

Walk up to the car park and you'll find the doors locked. A note on the floor by the entrance explains that the security guard holds the keys — and he's at the laundromat on the street behind the parking garage.

There's a catch: the laundromat is locked too. To get in, head down the alley covered in Hiss Spikes to the right of the buildings. Float over the spikes, as touching them will damage Dylan. Halfway down the alley, take the path on your left and watch out for the laser trap. Once it's safe, drop to the ground and go through the open door on your left — inside you'll find a resource chest and the back door into the laundromat.

Grab the key from the security guard (he won't be needing it) and return to the parking garage doors.

Investigate Jesse's vision and enter the Fault

Before moving on, stop by the parking garage office to open another resource chest. Then take the elevator to the top floor of the car park.

Your next objective is simple: jump into the large hole in the center of the structure, marked by Jesse's floating head and the cars pouring out of it. Fall damage isn't a concern here, so drop straight in. After a long fall, you'll land outside the Fault entrance — float over and interact with the TV.

Meet Jesse and learn Shift

Inside the Fault, the structure mirrors the one you completed during the 'Orientation' mission. Jesse isn't far from the entrance; find her and talk, and you'll unlock a new navigation ability: Shift.

Shift lets you move onto the gravitational anomalies scattered across Control Resonant, both on the ground and in the air. Expect to use it constantly — running up walls to reach new areas or landing on ceilings for a different view.

Finish the ritual and collect your rewards

The final stretch acts as a tutorial for Shift, so it's straightforward: keep moving forward, using the ability as needed, until you reach the last TV. Complete the ritual with Jesse and you'll return to the real world, wrapping up 'The Incursion Fault'.

Your rewards: the Shift ability, one Talent Point, and 600 XP for the West Incursion Zone.

What's next

With this mission done, continue with 'The West Incursion Zone' main mission. If you'd rather take a break from the critical path, you can hunt down taxi locations and dog locations in the meantime.
