The Callisto Protocol is a 2022 survival horror action video game developed by Striking Distance Studios and published by Krafton. It was directed by Glen Schofield, who had previously co-created the Dead Space series. The game's story follows Jacob Lee (Josh Duhamel) who is sent to a prison facility set on the Jovian moon Callisto fighting against infected prisoners with an unknown disease while uncovering dark secrets of the facility. Gameplay has players exploring a series of levels, garnering resources while fighting off infected prisoners.
The game was released for PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Windows, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X/S on December 2, 2022. It received mixed reviews.
In The Callisto Protocol, players assume the role of Jacob Lee, an inmate of Black Iron Prison on the moon Callisto. Jacob is controlled from a third-person perspective, and most important gameplay information is displayed via a holographic HUD viewed from the same perspective. Jacob's health is indicated by an implant on the back of his neck called a "Core Device", and his health can be replenished with injectable pickups. In addition to gun-based combat, there is a melee combat system in which Jacob must dodge enemy attacks while looking for openings to strike and kill the enemy. Both combat styles can also be mixed up, which provides with a variety of ways of facing the various enemy types. If Jacob's health is reduced to zero, enemies will violently execute him. In the course of the game, Jacob can collect and review audio logs that provide deeper insights into the characters and setting, providing the player with strategy segments and expanding the story with around an hour's worth of cinematics that dive into the game's world.
On October 27, 2022, the Japanese release was canceled when the game did not get a CERO rating due to the game's violent content and the developer refused to make the necessary changes. The game was released for PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Windows, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X/S on December 2, 2022.
The Callisto Protocol received "mixed or average" reviews, according to review aggregator Metacritic. Several publications noted that The Callisto Protocol suffered from stuttering and performance issues, primarily affecting the PC version; as a result, the game received "mostly negative" user reviews on Steam upon release. The same day, the game received an update that alleviated shader compilation stutter, with further optimization patches being promised by the developers. Glen Schofield later claimed that the technical issues were the result of a "clerical error" from the game's development team.
