Prisoner,

We’re about one month into the current Rundown, and we’re seeing improved progress in how the Prisoners are executing their objectives. To motivate you even more we will reward any successful attempts at any of the expeditions in the current Rundown. If you survive any of these, you will be given a limited helmet; the Oblique Tigris.

This helmet will only be possible to acquire between January 27th (9:55 am PT) and February 3rd (10:00 am PT). So get down there, Prisoner! If you succeed, you will get to keep this helmet forever.



The reason for this helmet is the celebration of Lunar New Year – the Year of The Tiger - and the current Lunar New Year Sale on Steam (psst, GTFO is currently 20% off – go tell your non-GTFO-playing friends!).

We hope to do more of these in-game events in the future – but as this is the first-ever limited GTFO helmet, consider it a true gem. And good luck down in the Complex, Prisoner!

(Make sure to update to the latest build to be able to participate!)

Prisoners,

Welcome to a new year down in the Complex. Since our successful launch of GTFO 1.0 we have released two updates and now it's time for a third, hopefully squashing some pesky bugs, but also tweaking bot behaviour and small fixes. That scout update should please veterans of the game!

Stay safe,
10 Chambers

Developers 10 Chambers Collective had a little surprise for everyone at The Game Awards tonight - their co-op horror game GTFO has launched out of early access. It first arrived in early access two years ago, and has had loads of update adding new weapons and environments since. With today's 1.0 launch, it adds even more content too, including new environments, tools, bots, checkpoints and more. That's my weekend plans sorted.

GTFO leaves Early Access with the release of Rundown 6.0 Destination. It’s a thrill ride packed with surprises for the players who’ve supported us over two years of development. We couldn’t have made this journey without you and we hope you enjoy the new Rundown.

For newcomers, Rundown 6.0 Destination is the ideal kickoff for life as a prisoner. It’s got it all - crippling suspense, shocking enemies, and terrifying environments where you just know bad stuff is waiting for you (because it is).

Like all Rundowns, this one challenges players with ultra-tough expeditions and introduces never-before-seen weapons and creatures. But there are all new game features we think you’ll appreciate. Here are some we’re particularly excited about:

Bots: Artificial intelligence can never substitute a human teammate, but you never want to enter the Complex with fewer than three prisoners. Now, you don’t have to. Prisoner bots - one of the most requested features - are now available to follow you through the Rundown. They’ll sneak when you sneak, gather resources, and help out when things get messy.

Checkpoints: To make GTFO a little more forgiving for new players without making it easier, we added checkpoints. With checkpoints, a whole expedition isn’t doomed by one fatal mistake. They are totally optional, though. If you want to play the game the old-fashioned way because you have a few screws loose, you can.

Player customization: The Complex isn’t a fashion runway, but we had prisoner customization in mind back in 2015 when we started developing the game. It’s satisfying to offer players ways to customize prisoners in Rundown 6.0 Destination. To start, you can unlock clothing items by completing expeditions.
