About

The biophage virus threatens to spread beyond the walls of Black Iron Prison. Fight through the derelict penitentiary in a last-ditch attempt to retrieve Mahler’s data, get it off Callisto and redeem yourself. ONE LAST JOB Black Iron Prison is in ruins and crawling with biophage. But your work on Callisto isn't finished yet. Survive the horrors lurking in the shadows long enough to retrieve Dr. Mahler’s research and transmit it off-world. Discover the harrowing depths of Mahler’s experiments and the vast reach of Kallipolis’ influence. TERRIFYING NEW ENEMY Not only must you face the monstrosities and Security Units lurking the halls of Black Iron but a new abomination – part biophage, part machine – now stalks the crumbling prison. Keep your guard up and use every weapon at your disposal to destroy these powerful new enemies. HAMMER TIME The terrors lurking Black Iron are imposing... but so are you. Acquire the all-new Kinetic Hammer to take down hordes of biophage. Use the heavy-hitting hammer to bludgeon a single biophage and crowd control multiple enemies at once or use the charged heavy attack to deal massive damage and dismember your adversaries.

    Ultimately, if you’re a fan of The Callisto Protocol and simply want more, Final Transmission will keep you entertained for a short while while embellishing on the game’s original ending. Do you need to play it? Not really. What’s added here isn’t all that refreshing, and the final boss fight is a bit of a bust. But picked up as part of the game’s season pass, it’s worth playing though just to discover Jacob’s fate.

    Final Transmission is the proper "ending" for The Callisto Protocol, and while it closes Jacob Lee's story, the overall execution and content leave a lot to be desired.

    Final Transmission is more of the game I really like, but Schofield and company's way of exiting Jacob, of closing the story, is depressing to say the least, and if you're more cynical, it's actually shameful. I'm giving it a 5 because it's still more content, which I enjoyed towards the end, but then again, it's really worth no more than that.

    I realize my sway as a random internet reviewer on a small site is pretty limited, but I’ll give this a shot regardless: if, by some miracle, a publisher happens to be reading this, please, there are very few titles that need to look super realistic. I would much rather play games sooner, with more interesting & innovative designs, and have them cost less, than be able to see the individual pores on the main character’s face or something.
