This is the principal lineup presented by Remedy, not a transcription of every credit or a list of every language’s dub. A returning performance does not tell you how much screen time the character has or where they appear.
Dylan: the character you play
Dylan Faden is CONTROL Resonant’s main playable character. Sean Durrie returns to perform him. Dylan is Jesse’s brother, previously confined by the FBC; the sequel sends him into a warped Manhattan with the Aberrant.
If you expected Jesse’s Service Weapon, see the gameplay comparison. The change of lead also changes the combat style.
Jesse: returning, but not the playable lead
Courtney Hope returns as Jesse. Dylan’s search for his sister is part of the official premise. You play Dylan rather than Jesse; her importance to the story is separate from who the player controls.
For a spoiler-light starting point, see whether to play Control first. This overview does not reveal Jesse’s fate or the sequel’s ending.
Zoe De Vera: Dylan’s handler
Frankie Kevich plays Zoe De Vera. Remedy introduces Zoe as an FBC field agent and Dylan’s handler. She has experience of the crisis outside the Oldest House and supports Dylan through their conversations. That identifies her role without revealing the later turns of their relationship.
Where does Ahti appear?
Yes, Ahti appears in CONTROL Resonant. His limited appearance is different from finding the janitor around the original game’s headquarters. Keep the late-story details collapsed below if you want to discover them yourself.
Late-story character spoilers: Ahti’s appearance
In Rebuild, Ahti appears in the retro memory sequence. The scene identifies him by name in its dialogue box, beside a yellow mobile lab. An epilogue collectible called Season’s Greetings also features him.
The postcard names the Oceanview Hotel and Casino and Cauldron Lake, WA. Those printed references do not establish Ahti’s current physical location or explain his powers.
A character appearance and a new voice performance are separate facts. Martti Suosalo’s earlier Ahti role does not by itself confirm a new recorded performance in Resonant. The principal cast diary does not supply that credit, and IMDb’s development-diary archive-footage entries cannot substitute for the game’s credits.
Who is Wilson?
Wilson is an FBC researcher connected to the Crossing the Threshold side story in Central. The quest’s investigation leads to him at a warehouse. This is a character identification, not the full quest solution or an ending spoiler.
His English performer is not verified in the sources used here. He is not one of the seven speakers identified in Meet The Cast. An unrelated Wilson name in production credits cannot establish his voice actor.

This development diary mixes interviews, concept material and gameplay. Older Control footage is background to the comparison; it does not prove a character appears in Resonant.
