Striking Distance Studios has now released The Callisto Protocol update introducing a most awaited feature that increases its replayability.
The Callisto Protocol Update Adds Favorite Feature
This new update was expected to be released in early February 2023, but it seems it arrived earlier today. It finally introduces the anticipated feature New Game Plus, which allows players to use a previously completed game save and play a whole new playthrough with big advantages like weapons, upgrades, and more.
Aside from New Game Plus, update 3.01 introduces various fixes for The Callisto Protocol. One of them includes fixing an issue where some users were not correctly granted The Protocol is About Life achievement. It also makes general performance optimizations across all platforms.
The update also adds a fix for the Maximum Security Achievement Trophy/Achievement bug. This was added after the feedback the studio got from the players.
Check out the full patch notes below:
