The Callisto Protocol – The DF Tech Review + PS5 vs Xbox Series X/ S + PC #StutterStruggle Analysis

We’ve been eagerly anticipating this one – and on PlayStation 5 at least, we’re getting a simply brilliant game and a proper technical showcase. That’s the bulk of our coverage in this tech review – but there’s clearly something amiss with the Xbox Series port, while the stuttering problems on the day one PC experience are unbelievably bad. Note: At 21:35, the label under PlayStation 5 should read Quality, not Performance. Apologies for the typo.
