The Callisto Protocol's release date is fast-approaching, and many horror fans are excited to dive into Glen Schofield's latest title. Schofield played a huge role in Dead Space, and with it getting a remake and The Callisto Protocol, it seems safe to say that fans are eating well over the next few months.

Perhaps even more exciting is the fact that The Callisto Protocol is not a one-and-done game, it would seem. Those who purchase the Digital Deluxe Edition will receive a Season Pass that ensures even more content comes to the game over time, and as spotted by VGC, The Callisto Protocol's Steam Page lists all of the content fans can expect.

Among story DLC, new game modes, skins, and so on is the addition of 25 new death animations as part of the Contagion Bundle and the Riot Bundle. It remains to be seen how this works out exactly, but it's a unique addition for a Season Pass. Most fans expect most of this, but not death animations. However, it's worth mentioning that these animations come across as a gory, rewarding element attached to The Callisto Protocol's gameplay instead of a punishment.

Otherwise, it's pretty standard fare including an incredibly trying, permadeath game mode for The Callisto Protocol, new areas and weapons, and at least one story-based DLC that will see players "dig deeper into the horrifying secrets of The Callisto Protocol." Here is what the Season Pass includes:

  • Outer Way Skin Collection: Bear the armor of the Outer Way, an underground insurgency pitted against the UJC, as you fight to survive the horrors of Callisto.
  • Contagion Bundle: Discover the ultimate survival horror experience with a new mode, Contagion. With reduced ammo and health drops, a customized difficulty and permadeath – there are no second chances to escape Black Iron Prison or the horrors lurking beneath the surface of Callisto. The Contagion Bundle also includes thirteen new Jacob death animations and the Watchtower Skin Collection.
  • Riot Bundle: Venture into a previously undiscovered area of Black Iron Prison and battle through waves of brutal enemies. Gather credits to upgrade your weapons, or forge new ones, and survive the onslaught as long as you can in Riot, an all-new mode. The Riot Bundle also includes twelve new enemy death animations and the Engineer Skin Collection.
  • Story DLC: Dig deeper into the horrifying secrets of The Callisto Protocol.

The Riot game mode, as well as the permadeath game mode, are incredibly intriguing and bring even more challenge to The Callisto Protocol's difficulty. Yet, there's clearly something for everyone, for whatever reason they may dive into The Callisto Protocol at launch or beyond.

The Callisto Protocol releases December 2 for PC, PS4, PS5, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X.
