An internal combustion engine (1) includes a turbocharger (2) and a variable valve timing mechanism (18) for changing intake valve closing timing (IVC), and performs an early closing Miller cycle operation in which the IVC is set before bottom dead center during high load operation. When the density of intake air is low in a highland, the IVC is corrected to be retarded closer to the bottom dead center. When the density of intake air is low, the maximum output that can be output by the internal combustion engine (1) is restricted by an intake air amount limit (L33), which is determined by a rotational speed limit of the turbocharger 2, and a knocking limit (L13). When the IVC is corrected to be retarded, the knocking limit decreases as shown by a line (L14), but the intake air amount limit increases as shown by a line (L34), and consequently, the maximum output increases from an intersection point (C13) to an intersection point (C14).
