Critic reviews
- PS Lifestyle3.0With an inconsistent story, total absence of scares, and clunky combat, Final Transmission makes for a shallow last gasp of air for The Callisto Protocol. This new franchise has been lost in space since launch and an onslaught of patches and DLC hasn’t made it any less of a disappointment. Final Transmission just highlights what was already bad about The Callisto Protocol, and ensures that it has ended as poorly as it began.
- SKNR.net8.0There is a new story DLC promised for the summer and hopefully, the disappointing sales for the game to date will not delay this as the game has much going for it and while it is not Dead Space, it is a very worthy and enjoyable time for those willing to be patient with it and the issues.
- Softpedia6.0I’ve been pretty excited for The Callisto Protocol, which is probably why I was so disappointed after I saw the credits roll. Maybe I wanted to play another Dead Space game and thought this would quench my thirst for it, but this is certainly not it.
- Hey Poor Player6.0The game strikes me as a conglomerate of ideas, like a novel approach to dodging, a similar but different storyline, and tough combat borrowed from challenging games like Dark Souls, packed into a beautifully presented game.
- NoobFeed7.5Overall, it is a genuine sci-fi survival horror adventure that doesn't offer anything groundbreaking but does know how to please lovers of the genre. Despite its brief length, the game provides a satisfying survival horror experience in a range of settings, carried out by a superb cast.
- ZTGD7.0The game’s depiction of excessive violence is fun but even it wears on to the point of feeling overboard, especially when you think why they have giant grinding machines in the open like this in the middle of a prison. The story, while predictable, was an enjoyable adventure, but as far as graphics this game looks incredible.
