All this comes just eight days away from release.

The sci-fi horror action game The Callisto Protocol is just eight days away from its planned December 2 release. Up until just a short time ago, we had no information regarding what sort of PC hardware you would need to even run the game. Now, developer Striking Distance Studios not only shared those minimum and recommended PC system requirements, but they also added in a little something extra.

That "little something extra" is none other than the anti-piracy and anti-tamper DRM you all love to hate, Denuvo. The Steam page for The Callisto Protocol was updated earlier this evening with that ominous red warning box informing everyone that Denuvo DRM will be included in the PC release. It will be interesting to see whether or not there are any performance woes for The Callisto Protocol out of the gate that may or may not be blamed on Denuvo.

As for the PC system requirements themselves, well they're a bit on the steep side of things.

In case you missed it, some details about the Season Pass for The Callisto Protocol were also revealed today. We learned that there will be some new story content coming, a couple of additional gameplay modes such as permadeath mode, and 13 additional death scenes. Striking Distance lead Glen Schofield took to Twitter to help clarify some of the complaints about the death scene DLC and other Season Pass content.
