Now, sci-fi horror game The Callisto Protocol - the spiritual successor to Dead Space - isn't actually released until December, but developer Striking Distance Studios has already revealed that it will include a unique achievement for adventurous players who make an active effort to get themselves killed in every which way.

The studio's Chief Technical Officer, Mark James, recently confirmed that given the sheer creative number of grisly deaths the player can suffer throughout the campaign, they opted to give a little reward to those who went out of their way to see them all. He said:

"We're working on our achievements and trophies at the moment, and we actually have an achievement in there for seeing all of the deaths... You are gonna die in our game. A lot of people ask how long the game is, and it's like, how many times are you going to die? Also, the variables are huge in the way they attack you or you attack them, so you might actually die more or less. Even things like backing into a fan, it's a mistake and it will result in a death, you'll have to do that section again."

Given that each monster has its own unique way of murdering you and you also need to be wary of environmental hazards like the aforementioned industrial-sized fans, players are gonna have a ton of fun trying to catch 'em all.
