New Game+ Available Now for ‘The Callisto Protocol’ in Latest Update
Striking Distance Studios has dropped a new update for The Callisto Protocol that introduces New Game+, which is earlier than the February 7th date the developer had proposed back in December. Alongside the addition of New Game+, the update also introduces several fixes for the game.
Detailed on The Callisto Protocol‘s official Reddit page, those who previously completed the game will now have access to New Game+ with the update. All of your weapons, upgrades, and Callisto Credits from your first run can be collected at the first Reforge.
In addition, several bugs and optimization issues have been addressed, which will no doubt please PC owners who were plagued with framerate drops.
There’s no word yet on The Callisto Protocol‘s Hardcore mode, which Striking Distance had previously mentioned would be included as part of a free update. Also, we’re still waiting on news regarding the game’s Season Pass, which is set to start rolling out on February 7th.
One would hope that once this post-launch content starts rolling out, things will improve for The Callisto Protocol, which has had a rocky start since its launch back in December.
The Callisto Protocol is out now on PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Xbox One, Xbox Series, and PC via Steam. If you’re still on the fence about getting it, check out Thomas’ take on the game.
A new update is available for all platforms, which includes New Game+. Based on your feedback, we also fixed the Maximum Security Achievement/Trophy bug and posted a full list of all the fixes and changes we've made since launch here: https://t.co/pabAnvc7uJ pic.twitter.com/SWFFcihOkH

During the Future Games Show, Bandai Namco and Supermassive have announced the first DLC for Little Nightmares III in “The Backstage”. Featuring new puzzles and challenges, this additional content will take players to the darkest part of the Carnevale, where they’ll meet a new character and face new perils. You won’t have to wait long to get it, either, as Little Nightmares III – The Backstage DLC will release on June 12.
In this new adventure, Low will meet Dime, a new child who wears a torch hat, which turns out to be a very helpful tool for finding their way in what lies beneath the curtains of The Carnevale. The two children will have to face new threats and use their light to find a way to save Alone from the hands of the Puppeteer.
In the original game, players meet Low and Alone, who are trapped within the Spiral, a cluster of disturbing places. The two will have to work together to survive in a dangerous world full of delusions. As they scamper and shelter on their journey to escape the grasp of an even greater threat, their senses may also lead them astray into the shadows.
Little Nightmares III is currently available for PC via Steam, Xbox One, Xbox Series, Nintendo Switch, Switch 2, PlayStation 4 and PlayStation 5.
