Striking Distance Studios and KRAFTON, Inc. are proud to unleash [REDACTED] onto the world today. This isn’t just another sci-fi roguelike—this is a no-holds-barred, action-packed, punk rock dungeon crawl set in the brutal halls of Black Iron Prison, the state-of-the-art penitentiary from The Callisto Protocol. Available now on Xbox Series X|S, PlayStation 5, Steam, and Epic Games Store, [REDACTED] throws you into the chaos where death isn’t the end. It’s just the beginning.

The goal: make it to the last escape pod alive. But it won’t be a cakewalk as you survive hordes of infected inmates, dodge security systems that want you dead, and outsmart rival survivors who are gunning for you. You’re not some overpowered hero — you’re a security guard just trying to make it out alive. But with an arsenal of deadly weapons, suits, upgrades, and wild experiments at your disposal, you might just stand a chance… or you’ll die trying (again).

  • FIGHT, DIE, ADAPT: Each death is a learning experience. Starting fresh each run, build up your loadout with powerful experiments, weapon schematics, and buffs to battle through Black Iron. When you die (and you will die), use your hard-earned loot to purchase new permanent weapons, suits, and skills. Get stronger, experiment with your strategy, and get out!
  • FIGHT YOUR LAST CORPSE: When you die, you leave more than a coverall-clad carcass behind. Defeat the reanimated corpse of the last guard to succumb to the prison’s dangers to earn a powerful experiment. But beware, it’s not going to be an easy fight. The semi-alive guard has the same loadout they had when they met their untimely end and a few extra tricks up its sleeve to keep things spicy.
  • ROUT YOUR RIVALS: You are not the only person to survive the initial outbreak or willing to use a bit of violence to get to the last escape pod. Some prisoners – and even your correctional service colleagues – are just as eager to escape. They will make escaping harder by attacking you remotely or challenging you to a one-on-one duel. Race them, attack them back remotely, and fight them to the death to make it out alive.
  • DO OR DIE: Let’s say you made the perfect build, battled through all the bosses, ran through rivals, killed your corpse, and are now standing in front of that last escape pod. Sure, you could leave it all behind for the sweet taste of freedom. Or you can risk it all for one last hardcore do-or-die run back through the prison! Fail and you lose everything. But if you succeed, you’ll unlock new powerful permanent gear!
  • FUTURE PUNK: Immerse yourself in a world dripping with attitude, where vibrant, graphic-novel visuals and a 180bpm arcade-punk soundtrack by Mutato Muzika set the pace for relentless action. The game’s sharp, irreverent style injects a unique energy into every moment of [REDACTED]’s sci-fi chaos.
