The Callisto Protocol update adds hardcore mode and new skins
Everyone experiences games a bit differently, and some Callisto Protocol players have apparently found themselves hurling misshapen meat monsters into a floor-to-ceiling grinding machine and thinking, “Gee, I wish this was harder.” Those players are in luck: the sci-fi horror game has gotten a new update that not only adds a tougher ‘hardcore’ mode, but a hardcore New Game+ as well.

The Callisto Protocol Adds Hardcore Difficulty Mode
A Hardcore difficulty mode has been added to The Callisto Protocol in a new, free update. The mode further limits ammo and health drops, reduces the value of contraband, and makes enemies more powerful.
Additionally, the first of four scheduled DLCs, which are included in The Callisto Protocol’s season pass, has also dropped. The Outer Way Skin collection adds Outer-Way-themed skins to the game.
Other upcoming DLC include The Contagion Bundle, which releases in March, as well as the Riot Bundle, for later in the spring. These packs will add new games modes, as well as other, unannounced content. The final DLC will add new story content in Summer 2023. Other recent updates added new game plus and ray-traced reflections on Xbox Series X.

The Callisto Protocol Gets Massive Discount At Walmart
If you were intrigued by The Callisto Protocol when it launched last month but didn’t want to shell out $70 for it, now’s your chance to get the survival horror game for a great price. The Callisto Protocol is on sale for only $40 at Walmart for PS5. It’s the lowest price yet for the PS5 version. Sadly, Xbox Series X owners can’t take advantage of this deal. It’s worth noting that both the PS4 and Xbox One editions are discounted to $40, too.
The Callisto Protocol is the debut game from Striking Distance Studios, a game studio made up of ex-Dead Space and Call of Duty developers, including director Glenn Schoefield. The game is positioned as a “spiritual successor” to the original Dead Space trilogy and features a mix of brutal action combat and sci-fi survival horror.
