Since both RE4 and the original Dead Space are getting remakes that will be coming out after The Callisto Protocolwith its Decemrelease date, I think it should be pretty interesting as a point of comparison if nothing else. What is surprising to me is that it also aims to lean more into the horror games that inspired Dead Space in the first place, like Resident Evil 4. It’s made by many of the same people, so that’s not surprising. In the case of The Callisto Protocol, we’re looking at a game that is unabashedly trying to be a new take on the kind of cosmic horror that made up the Dead Space games.
