Developer Remedy Entertainment confirmed the news today, saying that Control 2 would be a joint project with publisher 505 Games (which published the original Control).

Along with this message from game director Mikael Kasurinen:
With Control, we leaped into the unknown. We wanted to create something new. Something different and unexpected. A world like no other. Thank you, the audience, for making Control such a success for us.

Earlier this year, Remedy said that it was working on a “bigger budget” Control game, which is, in fact, the sequel. (It was previously known as Codename Heron.) Alongside that, a multiplayer spinoff of the franchise is also in development.
Outside of Control, Remedy is also working on Alan Wake 2 and a mystery project as part of Epic Games’ new publishing label.
