Callisto Contagion

The second DLC for released in December survival horrer The Callisto Protocol has released and it is remarkable, but not in a good way.

Never imagined being asked to pay for a harder difficulty level for a game. The bundle also includes cosmetics but it still feels cheeky charging customers for an extra hard mode.

Fantasy Wins

Reviews for survival horror The Callisto Protocol are coming in and like Gotham Knights, some major sites (Gamespot) have scored it a terrifying 5 out of 10. Its current review average on Metacritic is 74.

Horizon Forbidden West, Stray and Grounded garnered critical praise but not as much as fantasy titles Elden Ring and God of War: Ragnarok.

Callisto v Avatar

Earlier this year, fantasy action roleplaying game Elden Ring swung big in the promotion department, with several television commercials starring well known actors and sports people.

The Callisto Protocol has picked up the same bat.

Callisto Content

In a sure sign of confidence, developers of The Callisto Protocol have listed a Digital Deluxe Edition on Steam which includes, among other things, a season pass and "story DLC" (downloadable content).

Gamers would be familiar with developers dodging the question of potential of DLC before a game's launch.

The Cruncho Protocol

Bloomberg reporter Jason Schreier took aim at studio director Glen Schofield for a tweet in which he talked about 12-15 hour work days and that being a labour of love.

Crunch time in game development is a hot button. Glen swiftly apologised.

Gamescom Day 2

Instead of wall to wall trailers, today is more of a deep dive into a much smaller number of tiles.

Even so we'll deal with High on Life, Homeworld, Lies of P, Steelrising, The Callisto Protocol and Warhammer 40K: Darktide collectively.
