(Pocket-lint) — Sticking to what you know can be a reliable way to succeed sometimes, so it shouldn't be a surprise that one of the creators of Dead Space is back with another slow and terrifying space horror game.
The Callisto Protocol looks gruesome and gory, and it's coming out pretty soon, so find out all the key details about it right here.

We know that The Callisto Protocol will come out on 2 December 2022, just in time to give players a fix of horror before the holidays if they want it.
From what we saw during Summer Games Fest the game does look nicely polished, but as always take the date with a pinch of salt — we're all getting very used to games getting delayed by now, after all.
This is a pretty fine-looking game, but that doesn't mean it's locked onto newer hardware only — The Callisto Protocol is confirmed for PC, PS4, PS5, Xbox One and Xbox Series X/S.
That means you'll be able to enjoy it on just about any modern console you like, apart from the " rel="" target="_blank">Nintendo Switch.
However, we'd obviously advise that the versions planned for PS5 and Xbox Series X/S will run more reliably and have higher visual fidelity.
Interestingly, The Callisto Protocol has had one major change to its story approach, before we get to specifics. When it was first announced, it was billed as part of an expanding universe by publisher Krafton, tieing into its main franchise, PUBG.
That was something that was always going to be a stretch — a science fiction space horror game that tied back into a modern-day battle royale shooter? It's thankfully been abandoned, too — in May 2022 we had it confirmed that the game is now set in its own world with independent lore.
