The Callisto Protocol is getting a new piece of story DLC called Final Transmission, which will launch as a timed exclusive on PlayStation 48 hours early June 27th, and then be released on all other platforms on June 29th.
Striking Distance Studios posted a teaser trailer for the DLC on their Twitter page showing protagonist Jacob Lee facing off against a giant robot. It’s described as being the “heart-pounding final chapter” of the game, hinting that this could be the game’s only story DLC. There’s been no official word from the developer whether any additional DLC will be released in the future.

Upon its release late last year, we gave The Callisto Protocol a 9/10 review score, saying, “If you go into the game looking for a Dead Space clone, you’re going to be sorely disappointed, but if you’re interested in playing a brand new AAA horror game with a lot to offer, The Callisto Protocol is a very engaging and satisfying experience that pushes production values to a new high for horror games.”
Our take on the game was in contrast to many other critics and sites who were less than enthusiastic about the game. It will be nice to have some closure to this gory, space-prison story.
The Callisto Protocol is out now for PlayStation 5, PlayStation 4, Xbox One, Xbox Series X|S, and PC via Steam.
