If you saw the painfully bloody gameplay reveal for The Callisto Protocol at this year’s Summer Games Fest, it may not come as a total surprise that developer Striking Distance Studios studied real life examples of gore while researching how to portray the nastier side of horror.
For more, check out our own interview with Striking Distance, where we learned that The Callisto Protocol will be much more open and replayable than Dead Space ever was.
The extended gameplay trailer for The Callisto Protocol features numerous sequences of gory violence; weapons tear chunks from enemy bodies, while foes thrown through industrial fans explode into sloppy mist.
I’m thankfully no expert on what bodies look like when torn apart, but I’d guess Striking Distance is in the right ballpark.
