If you bought the Deluxe Edition of CONTROL Resonant or locked in a preorder, you've got a pile of cosmetics and in-game items waiting. The catch is that not everything unlocks the moment you boot the game. Some items require you to push through the prologue first, while others are available right from the main menu. Here's the full breakdown so nothing gets left unclaimed.
What bonuses do you get with the Deluxe Edition and preorder?
The two purchasing tiers each carry their own set of items, and a few are exclusive to specific platforms. Here's everything included:

How to claim Dylan's outfits
You can't walk straight into the wardrobe from the title screen. Outfits only become accessible after completing the prologue, specifically after Dylan defeats the first Resonant and arrives at the Oldest House with Emily Pope. Once that sequence wraps up, look for a Wardrobe to the left of your starting position in the Oldest House.
The wardrobe system breaks down into six separate customization slots:
Top Layer
Hair
Base Layer
Facial Hair
Accessories
Body and Face
Your Deluxe Edition and preorder outfits, including the Hiss Corruption Outfit, AWE Mission Outfit, and the PS5-exclusive Occult Outfit, all show up here once unlocked. Wardrobe stations appear throughout the map, mostly inside FBC offices and designated safe areas, so you're never far from a place to swap looks.
How to claim the Wallet and Pickpocket's Tool artifacts
Both artifacts, the Wallet and the Pickpocket's Tool, are found inside the Gap. You can enter the Gap at any point after completing the prologue. Once inside, interact with the small water fountain structure to access artifact crafting. The Deluxe Edition's Starter Resource Bundle also deposits resources here, giving you a head start on crafting from the moment you gain access.
tip
Artifacts in Control Resonant function as craftable gear items rather than passive collectibles. Heading to the Gap early means you can start using your bonus resources before most players even know the system exists.

How to access the Digital Artbook and Original Soundtrack
These two items don't require any in-game progress at all. From the main menu, select the Deluxe: Art Book & OST option and everything is immediately viewable.
warning
Some images inside the artbook contain late-game content. If you're going in fresh, it's worth skipping the artbook until you've finished the story.
Planning around your bonuses
The Starter Resource Bundle gives you a meaningful advantage early in the crafting loop, and equipping the right outfit before your first real encounter is a small but satisfying detail. The prologue itself is short, so the wait to access wardrobe and artifact content is minimal.
