Kalisto is a console warez group established in March 1998,[1] a subsidiary of Fairlight,[2] which specializes in the release and distribution of PlayStation (PS1) and PlayStation 2 (PS2) ISO images, briefly moonlighting on the Dreamcast platform in mid to late 2000.
Kalisto entered into the Dreamcast scene on June 26, 2000, with the release of the title Evolution: The World of Sacred Device.
Bye.While the claim of stock options was allegedly a joke,[1] Kalisto ceased all releases for the Dreamcast shortly after and focused on PlayStation games.
(although Kalisto did return for one final rip and released the U.S. version of Shenmue on November 9, 2000)[6][7] A new group called Echelon emerged on September 4, 2000, picking up the slack to later become the leading release group for the Dreamcast.
[11] In 2004, Kalisto was named as one of six groups targeted as part of Operation Fastlink by the United States Department of Justice.
