Project Birdseye announced – roguelike action game set in The Callisto Protocol’s Black Iron Prison
'A side quest that doesn't impact the development of our next AAA game.'
Publisher KRAFTON and developer Striking Distance Studios have announced Project Birdseye, a tentatively titled roguelike action game set in The Callisto Protocol‘s Black Iron Prison. Platforms and a release date were not announced.
Get the first details below.
Project Birdseye is Striking Distance Studios’ take on a fast-action roguelike experience set in Black Iron Prison.
In 2023, a small group of us began working on a passion project that was born out of our obsession with easy to pick up and play but fun to master roguelikes. We love the world we created for The Callisto Protocol and want to keep playing in that sandbox—and Black Iron Prison is the perfect future-punk playground for the team’s vision.
As you can tell, this isn’t The Callisto Protocol 2—think of it as a side quest that really resonated with the team—it let us expand the world of The Callisto Protocol and stretch our creative muscles on something a bit different without impacting development on our next AAA game.
Since so much of The Callisto Protocol‘s post-launch journey was shaped by the community, it made sense to bring everyone in during an early phase of development to see if the concept clicks with you as much as it has with us.
