The Callisto Protocol Receives New Content With Riot Mode DLC

Written by Brandon Hofer on May 23, 2023

News: Some new content is now available in The Callisto Protocol that includes a new mode and a scoring system to show off your score.

Earlier today a new mode was released in The Callisto Protocol called Riot Mode. This new mode allows players to test their mettle and compete for high scores. The third drop in the game’s season pass, Riot Mode is available on PS5, PS4, Xbox Series X|S, Xbox One, and PC, and includes eleven new enemy death animations and The Prospector Skin Collection.

Survival Basics for Riot Mode:

Jacob Lee finds himself in an isolated corner of the prison, just three rooms and connecting hallways that contain loot crates full of health gel packs, health injectors, GRP batteries, and ammunition. Armed with the stun baton, GRP, a hand cannon, and a riot gun to start, Jacob must defend himself from endless waves of biophage enemies who vary in strength and composition. The longer he survives the more he will be hunted, with increasingly vicious foes, such as the Two-Head, appearing over time.

Unique to Riot is Rampage Mode, a new gameplay modifier that players can activate by scoring points and filling up a meter. Rampage Mode grants a short period of infinite ammo and GRP charges, and enemies will die from a single attack.

Riot Mode’s Scoring System:

Success in Riot Mode is measured through a scoring system that awards points for kills based on weapon used, enemy limbs severed, and types of enemies defeated. At the end of every Riot Mode run, players are given a final score that they can compare against other players. Success in Riot Mode also awards medals based on how long you survive and how many points you earn.

Riot Mode is available on all platforms (PS5, PS4, Xbox Series X|S, Xbox One, and PC) as part of the Riot Bundle, which also includes eleven new enemy death animations and The Prospector Skin Collection. You can get your hands on the Riot Bundle as part of The Callisto Protocol’s Digital Deluxe Edition, Season Pass, or purchase it separately.
