Striking Distance Studios has rolled out The Callisto Protocol update 3.02, which adds a new Hardcore mode to the game.

The patch is available for download now and should download automatically if this option has been enabled (on either PC or consoles). As said, this new update makes adds a new mode that makes the game more challenging by making ammo, health, and credits more scarce. In addition, enemy damage has been increased while stun baton damage has been lowered. Also, the mode increased enemy mutation speed, and Contraband value has been reduced. There's also a new Hardcore Mode New Game + for those who completed the game in hardcore mode alongside new achievements and trophies.

Aside from the new mode, this new patch also packs various improvements, including ray tracing improvements for those on PC, and Steam Deck-specific changes. We've included the full release notes down below:
