The Callisto Protocol isn’t part of the PUBG universe any more

Yay?!

Dead Space spiritual successor The Callisto Protocol is no longer part of the PUBG universe, Striking Distance Studios’ Glen Schofield has declared.

“It was originally part of the PUBG timeline, but grew into its own world,” Schofield said on Twitter. “PUBG is awesome, we will still have little surprises for fans, but [The Callisto Protocol] is its own world, story and universe.”

Striking Distance Studios is owned by Krafton, which also owns PUBG and developer PUBG Studios; from that, you might understand why the science fiction horror title was announced with connections to the hit battle royale.

The Callisto Protocol was announced as part of The Game Awards 2020. We’ll have more on the title as it becomes available. For now, check out its announce trailer below.

About the author

Steve Wright

Steve's the owner and Editor-in-Chief of Stevivor.com, the country’s leading independent video games outlet. Steve arrived in Australia back in 2001 on what was meant to be a three-month working holiday before deciding to emigrate and, eventually, becoming a citizen.

Stevivor is a combination of ‘Steve’ and ‘Survivor’, which made more sense back in 2001 when Jeff Probst was up in Queensland. The site started as Steve’s travel blog before transitioning over into video games.

Aside from video games, Steve has interests in hockey and Star Trek, playing the former and helping to cover video games about the latter on TrekMovie.com. By day, Steve works as the communications manager of the peak body representing Victorians as they age.
