PlayStation owners will also get it early
While hype has definitely died down for Striking Distance Studio’sThe Callisto Protocol, fans will be pleased to hear that some content is coming very soon. As of next week, you’ll be able to download “Final Transmission,” which is said, as the title denotes, to be the final chapter of the game.
A post on theofficial Twitter accountdescribes the closing content as “heart-pounding,” and adds that PlayStation owners can exclusively get hold of the DLC 48 hours early. This means they can receive access to the title’s climactic chapter on June 27, while other systems will see it release on June 29.
When it launched in December 2022,The Callisto Protocolwas met with a string of negative reviews. While touted as a spiritual successor toDead Space, Glen Schofield’s latest horror outing wasplagued with technical issues. The studio did roll out updates to try and patch some of the major ones out, but it was clear that fans were not impressed with the finished product on day one.

At the start of 2023, the release received aNew Game+ update, but outside that, not much has happened withThe Callisto Protocolfor some time now. For those that were after something that could plug aDead Space-sized hole, Striking Distance’s survival horror title left some feeling rather unfulfilled. Kind of like howBack 4 Bloodwas supposed to be a spiritual successor toLeft 4 Dead, but was, ultimately somewhat lacking.
In any case, for anyone who did enjoyThe Callisto Protocol, TheFinal TransmissionDLC is definitely something to look forward to. Perhaps Schofield and his team will move onto a new project after this.
