What stood out for a lot of people is the mention of 13 new death animations for Jacob. Players speculated this is cut content, a fair assumption given the concerns in adding new content to places players won’t see or experience.
Following a number of comments on the potential issue, Glen A. Schofield, CEO and founder of Striking Distance Studios, tweeted a response.
It’s good to have confirmation this is both not cut content and in response to fans wanting more unique deaths.
The Callisto Protocol is set to release Dec. 2 for PlayStation 4/5, Xbox One/Series, and PC.
