Well, we’ll get to Black Iron in a minute! But the truth is that we’ve watched this new trailer for The Callisto Protocol five times back to back... And we see no reason to slow down! If you ever needed further evidence that this is a game refusing to live in the dark shadows of Dead Space, here it is. Lol, like you needed further evidence.
Ever since its announcement at The Game Awards in December 2020, we’ve been nabbing every crumb of info and footage linked with this beauty from Striking Distance Studios, and consuming with fearful smiles on our faces. We’d like to point out that the link we make between Callisto and Dead Space is not purely because they’re survival horror games set in, uhh, space. No, they are actually drawn from the same mastermind brain of Glen Schofield! You may also recognise him from a little ol’ thing named Call of Duty... It’s got a few fans.
By now you’ll already know that we’ll play as Jacob Lee. An inmate of Black Iron Prison - a maximum-security penitentiary located on Jupiter's Dead Moon, Callisto. Does life get any worse? Short answer is “YEP.” The long answer can be found in this new trailer. Watch it again, go on.
After your fellow inmates begin to transform into monstrous creatures (putting it lightly), it’s abundantly clear that this was no accidental occurrence. Survival is your main objective, whilst uncovering the dark and disturbing secrets buried beneath the surface of Callisto and the Black Iron Prison itself!
“This isn’t about escape, Jacob. Not anymore.”
Sitting down at Gamescom’s Opening Night Live this summer, we saw a gameplay trailer of epic proportions that made Callisto one of our most anticipated games of 2022. The privately presented extended trailer shown to us by Striking Distance themselves the following day - that was just the icing on the cake.
The blend of horrifying atmosphere, tension, and over-the-top brutality are all further telltale signs of Dead Space influence, but with the games having an almost two month gap between launch dates - as well as Callisto being a brand new story with such strong pre-order content (these trailers are mini horror movies, man!) our excitement for The Callisto Protocol’s release on 2nd December is truly unrivalled!

Why do i still have the void in my heart when I hear your name
When I feel you or think about you i found myself not able to breathe
We can't say we didn't try but our love isn't on an all time high
The more I think about you did our love die?
We are both tired of this false accusations and it must be hard to end up lies with every sentence you'd tell me
You probably didn't have a clue I would've dodge a bullet for you my darling
But our relationship is now over due.
I didn't want it to go this way, but was here for our love to stay
We talked when you want, than I'm ignored
This is me knowing that I have to let you go putting all my love and longings aside
This is my acceptance that the best things are never straightforward and I have to give it a crooked try and twisted paths
This is me knowing that I have to do what it's right, that sometimes you have to do for the person you love is to let them go-to do more, feel more and be more than the person they could've never been by your side

I was raised in an orphanage with no access to the outside world, and the lady in charge made me go fight some evil boss “chosen one” style. I decided to defeat the evil boss with knowledge, so I recited random facts until she accidentally blew herself up.
Good evening and please take these 5/2 human beans gently in your palms.
Hmm? Where are they from, you ask?
Why, it's the one and only Things That Bleed! Written by @ghostly-cabbage , @kkachis , and @artistfingers . In which it establishes the possibility of sometimes family being a child spy, a scary scary assassin, and an eldritch horror boy.
Recently went back for a ... I honestly lost count how many times I've re-read this story. It's a gift that just keeps on giving, sometimes I just like go back to get soaked in the Scenery of quiet and restless hotels and underground parking lots and long car rides. hohoho don't let these mundane elements deceive you >:)
One thing I like to imagine is the post-reveal relationship these three may have, when Alex and Yassen get comfortable around Danny's ghost form, how they might just sit around in some rundown motel figuring out the next course of action but like. With a fun-sized eldritch noodle spreaded out on the bedsheets. Draped over the TV. Curled up in the cool tub or mini fridge. Rolling and eeling under the bed. Letting Alex wear him like a scarf. Yeah... yeah.
I am not certain how soft and fluffy these three can be when they spend enough time (and experience some Horrors) together, so these may be a bit ooc. but, well. I had fun drawing and I have faith in them💪

Call us dramatic, but that just might be the understatement of the century. We mean, if what we’d seen already wasn’t enough to confirm that things have gone absolutely pear shaped on Jupiter’s Dead Moon, then perhaps we need a lesson in reading the room. The room being the Dead Moon. Say that 10 times fast.
Yesterday saw The Callisto Protocol’s Launch Trailer appear from the black abyss and onto the world wide web, giving us an even bloody deeper insight into Jacob Lee’s situation. Which, lets face it, is f**ked. What? It’s an 18+ game. If language is upsetting your stomach then we’d suggest you find yourself a different title for the festive period - or risk said stomach contents painting your living room. Can’t see that going down well at Christmas.
What dark mysteries await at the heart of the powerful United Jupiter Company? Deformed fellow inmates with a thirst for flesh and making a mess might only be the face of the problem. Well, faces. Deformed, we told you.
Striking Distance Studios and Glen Schofield have pushed the boundaries of time and space to shape what looks to be one of the best titles of 2022, albeit a bit late for The Game Awards’ GOTY contention! A little premature considering we haven’t gotten hands on? Perhaps - but when we culminate what we saw at Gamescom with what’s been shown since, as well as factoring in the brains behind this operation - we feel comfortable behind such bold predictions.
There’s nothing left to do but cross the days off on the calendar until release day on 2nd December. It’s almost like being in prison, eh...

Laying down, looking up, listening to the night. An owl hooting behind, a blanket wrapped around, a sky full of stars above us.
Him next to me: not close enough.
I felt him breathing beside me. I felt myself stopping to breathe when his hand brushed mine. The adrenaline of the case long gone left me behind vulnerable and sensitive. No longer a soldier, just an ordinary guy who's falling in love.
I wished for it and was simultaneously afraid of it. I wished for it again when I saw another shooting star.
It was December when it came true.
A glare. Incredulity. An awkward laugh and my fingers tucking on my collar. Incredulity turning into confusion.
Fear made me wanna turn around. Turn around and run. Run until I forgot. Run forever, because how could I ever forget.
Looking up I saw confusion fading into amazement.
Something in his eyes made me smile. Feel warm inside, feel safe, feel brave.
He must have seen something in mine too because then: him, right in front of me. So close. Not close enough.
I don't know who leaned in first. I do know we met in the middle.
A wish came true and I wasn't afraid anymore. A wish of lips, tasting like biscuits.
