Key Takeaways

Callisto Cancelled in Japan

The highly anticipated game, Callisto Protocol, has been cancelled for release in Japan. This shocking turn of events comes after the rating board in Japan requested changes to the game, which the developers refused to make. In a statement released in Japanese, the developer expressed their unwillingness to alter the game in order to meet the requirements of the rating board. As a result, Japanese gamers who had preordered the game will be able to claim a full refund.


This cancellation has left many fans in Japan disappointed, as they were eagerly awaiting the release of Callisto Protocol. The game, developed by Striking Distance Studios, had generated significant buzz with its unique blend of horror and sci-fi elements. The cancellation has raised questions about the future of the game in other regions, as well as the implications for the developer.


However, despite this setback, the international release of Callisto Protocol remains unaffected. Gamers outside of Japan can still look forward to experiencing the thrilling gameplay and immersive world that the game promises to deliver. It is a relief for fans worldwide that the cancellation is limited to Japan and does not signify a complete abandonment of the project.

Wo Long Fallen Dynasty Release Date

In more uplifting news, the highly anticipated game Wo Long Fallen Dynasty has finally received a release date. Fans can mark their calendars for March 3, 2023, as that is the day when Wo Long will be available on multiple platforms including Xbox Series, Xbox One, PlayStation 5, PlayStation 4, and PC. Additionally, the game will also be a Day One release on Xbox Game Pass, much to the delight of subscribers.


Wo Long Fallen Dynasty offers an exciting multiplayer experience, allowing players to embark on epic adventures in a mythical world. Having played the demo with friends, I can attest to the fun and engaging gameplay, especially the intense three-player cooperative mode. The release date announcement has only heightened my anticipation for this highly anticipated game, and I cannot wait to delve into the fantastical world of Wo Long.

Using the impressive Unreal Engine 5, the developers aim to breathe new life into the beloved title, enhancing its visuals and gameplay mechanics. This news has excited many fans who have been longing to revisit the origins of Geralt of Rivia's epic adventures.


The original Witcher game, released in 2007, was praised for its immersive storytelling, complex characters, and morally ambiguous choices. With the remake on the horizon, fans can look forward to experiencing these elements with modern graphics and enhanced gameplay features. While an official release date has yet to be announced, fans can rest assured that the remake is indeed happening and will undoubtedly be an exciting trip down memory lane.
