The Callisto Protocol, the new game from the creator of Dead Space will be “creepy and terrifying”
The Callisto Protocol was announced during The Game Awards 2020. The project, intended to arrive at some point this year on PC, PS5 and Xbox Series X | S, is managed by Striking Distance Studios, a team headquartered in Zaragoza and led by no one. other than Glen A. Schofield, the creator of the Dead Space saga and founder of Sledgehammer Games (Call of Duty).
Few details are known about the title, and Schofield wanted to go back in time to promise us something: it will be a “terrifying, uncomfortable and scary” game. He did so via Twitter, where he also confirmed that Demetrius Leal and Atsushi Seo, with whom he has previously worked on titles such as Dead Space, The Godfather and Call of Duty: Advance Warfare, among others, are immersed in Development.
Horror lighting is not easy. Demetrius & Atsushi and the lighters are amazing. These two have been with me since Dead Space. Real friends they made @CallistoTheGame creepy, moody, creepy and uncomfortable. It’s perfect! Info soon! pic.twitter.com/JIi0QYtrEB

The Callisto protocol, 300 years after PUBG
Although it may seem crazy, the long-awaited horror game shares a universe with PlayerUnknown’s Battlegrounds, the famous battle royale. Specifically, the story takes place 300 years later (year 2320) and will take us to Callisto, one of the moons of the planet Jupiter, where we will have to explore a maximum security prison called Sideros. The decision is special, of course, although at the moment we do not know the exact link that the two titles will maintain.
Horror games coming in 2022
We’ve barely reached mid-year and we already have a calendar full of horror titles for us to enjoy in the months to come. Outlast Trials, Daymare 1994: Sandcastle and flashy Scorn are among them. If you are in love with the subject, in the following link you can find a report in which to know a little more about each of them.
The Callisto Protocol is expected to arrive in 2022 on PC, PS5 and Xbox Series X|S.
