Delay

The video game industry has been hit hard by the recent delays in the development of The Callisto Protocol, a survival horror game from Striking Distance Studios. The game was originally slated for a 2021 release, but the studio recently announced that the game has been delayed until 2022. As a result of this delay, the studio has had to lay off more than 30 staff members.

The layoffs come as a shock to many in the gaming community, as the studio had recently announced that they had hired additional staff in order to help with the development of the game. The studio had also recently released a trailer for the game, which had been met with positive reactions from fans.

The studio has not yet released an official statement regarding the layoffs, but it is believed that the delay in the development of The Callisto Protocol is to blame. The delay is likely due to the complexity of the game, which requires a great deal of time and effort to develop. Additionally, the studio may have been unable to secure additional funding to help with the development of the game.

The layoffs are a major setback for Striking Distance Studios, and it is unclear how this will affect the future of The Callisto Protocol. It is possible that the game could be further delayed, or even cancelled altogether. It is also possible that the studio could be forced to make further cuts in order to stay afloat.

The video game industry is an ever-changing landscape, and delays and layoffs are not uncommon. However, it is always a shame to see talented developers lose their jobs due to circumstances beyond their control. We can only hope that Striking Distance Studios will be able to weather this storm and continue to develop The Callisto Protocol.
