Striking Distance Studios is confirming that yes, it still plans to release The Callisto Protocol on December 2. And when The Callisto Protocol arrives, it will have a 60 FPS perfoꩲrmance mode option.

The survival-horror game was recently displayed with a February 12 date on the Epic Games Store, as reported by . However, in a , Striking Distance confirms it’s still on track for December 2.
