The Callisto Protocol: Best settings for RTX 3070

The Callisto Protocol is an action horror game directed by Glen Schofield, the co-creator of the Dead Space series.

The title, developed by Striking Distance Studios and published by Krafton Inc., was released earlier this month to a lot of hype. However, it was riddled with performance issues, forcing the developers to release a patch containing several fixes for different bugs.

The Nvidia GeForce RTX 3070 is a mid-tier graphics card that can easily handle most AAA title games at 1440p. It comes with ray tracing, which can help enrich the gaming experience.

This article aims to provide the best possible settings for immersive gameplay in The Callisto Protocol using the RTX 3070.

Players should update their graphics driver to the latest version using Nvidia GeForce Experience or the official website to ensure optimal performance. They can also enable ray tracing to enhance their gaming experience, but it is recommended to lower their resolution to 1920 x 1080 to maintain decent framerates.
