For those that had hoped to see upcoming space horror The Callisto Protocol make its way onto Xbox Games Pass at release, this seems unlikely.
Chatting to TrueAchievements, Striking Distance Studios’ chief technology officer Mark James said the Game Pass model was a “difficult” one in financial terms for independent studios with single-player games – something The Callisto Protocol is.
“I think those services are built towards some of the open-world style and repetitive multiplayer games. I think games [like that] survive well on that service,” James said when discussing the possibility of seeing a title like The Callisto Protocol joining Game Pass.
