Krafton The Callisto Protocol Standard Edition – Ps5

Game worked, exactly as advertised.
As far as the gameplay. It’s a straight shot shooter. Not open world just an old school type of game. Look up gameranx reviews. It’s a good one just short.

Callisto Protocol is a very solid action horror game that was, unfortunately, marketed as a survival horror made by the creator of Dead Space.

Well, the game is not Dead Space, and is not really like Dead Space except for a few minor similarities.

The game has a primary focus on melee combat, with firearms being used mostly to deal finishing blows.

Graphics and sound are excellent, and the game’s atmosphere is really tense and horrific. Despite all of that, I didn’t find the game very frightening, which I don’t really think is necessarily a bad thing. It certainly has some eerie moments, but there are far scarier games out there.

The game is very linear, with only a few optional paths to explore, but it’s a story driven game, so I really enjoyed it for what it is.

I think a lot of people really wanted this to be Dead Space, and when they got something different they felt disappointed. I didn’t really keep up with the game’s marketing before it came out, so I went in without any specific expectations. I had seen the reviews and had read people’s opinions on it saying it’s not very good, so I was pleasantly surprised to see how much fun I was actually having with it.

I played through the game twice, once on the medium difficulty, and then ng+ on the hardest difficulty, in order to get the platinum trophy, and I have also played through the DLC which was pretty decent, but a bit short.

Again, the game is action horror, not survival horror. Ammo and healing items are not scarce, and the game is more tense than terrifying. But as an action game it’s hard to find stuff that’s wrong with it that doesn’t boil down to “it’s not like Dead Space”.

Overall, Callisto Protocol is a solid linear single player experience and is pretty good for what it is.
