STRIKING DISTANCE STUDIOS GOES ROGUE WITH ITS NEW GAME [REDACTED]

AMSTERDAM, THE NETHERLANDS – AUG. 22, 2024 – Get ready to throw down, because Striking Distance Studios and KRAFTON, Inc. just unveiled [REDACTED] (yes, that’s the actual name), a new sci-fi roguelike dungeon crawler set in The Callisto Protocol universe. It’s action-packed, it’s punk rock, and it’s coming soon. [REDACTED] is set to land on Xbox Series X|S, PlayStation 5, and PC on Oct. 31.

[REDACTED] takes you deep into Black Iron Prison, a high-tech correctional facility on Jupiter’s icy moon, Callisto. Inmates are infected and mutating, security systems are indiscriminate, and other survivors are trying to escape by any means necessary. And though you’re just a modest security guard with one job – make it to the last escape pod alive – you’ll have an arsenal of weapons, suits, skills, experiments, and more to help you get out of Black Iron Prison alive. This game is all about fighting, dying, dying again, dying some more, and adapting, taking the classic roguelike formula and cranking it to eleven. The greatest hits are all there, like unlimited replayability, strategic build metas, progression through death, powerful upgrades, and speed running challenges, and (just in case you missed it) dying. Don’t worry though, because we’ve thrown in a few new ideas to ensure each run hits a little different.

• ACCESSIBLE ACTION: Black Iron Prison is your playground. Arm yourself with a mix of guns, melee weapons, skills, and upgrades. The game is intuitive to play, but mastering it is another story. Battle through waves of monstrosities to reach that last escape pod, feeling the rush of survival and the sting of every death.
• RIVALS: Black Iron Prison’s infected inmates and monsters are bad enough, but it’s the other survivors trying to escape you need to watch out for. They are gunning for the last escape pod and can be a right pain in the *** as they throw unexpected challenges in your path or attempt to take you out head-on.
• FIGHT YOUR LAST CORPSE: Let’s face it, you’re going to die. Don’t dwell on it. Instead, hunt down your last corpse and take it out to earn a high-tier experiment from your previous run. But don’t take the fight lightly. The corpse you battle will have the same weapons, upgrades, suit and experiments you had on your previous run – the stronger you were, the stronger it is.
