10 Chambers — a Swedish game development studio composed of industry veterans known for PAYDAY: The Heist and PAYDAY 2 — announced earlier this month the release of the iconic Rundown 2.0 Infection campaign for its popular four-player cooperative multiplayer horror shooter GTFO. This revered Rundown originally launched in March of 2020 and was the first Rundown launched after the release of the game. 

 

10 ChambersGTFO is a terrifying, hardcore cooperative multiplayer shooter where good teamwork means the difference between life and death. Cast in a four-player team of prisoners held against their will by a mysterious entity called “The Warden,” survival depends on a team’s ability to communicate, coordinate, and manage their ammunition — else they doom themselves to a bloody, messy death. To The Warden, they’re all expendable. 

 

GTFO uses a concept called Rundowns, which are regular game updates that add new limited-time expeditions (maps, scenarios, enemies, etc.) that completely replace the previous Rundown — at least that was the case until now. The re-release of Rundown 2.0 Infection is the latest in a planned rollout that will see every past GTFO Rundown since the game’s initial Early Access launch in December 2019 added back to the game. Once all the past Rundowns have been added, GTFO will have over 80 expeditions for fans to dive into with friends online or solo with AI partners. 

 

Rundown 2.0 is considered by many GTFO players as a cult classic rundown, and seeing as many current players haven’t had the chance to play it, it’s exciting to make it available permanently,” said Robin Björkell, Communications Director at 10 Chambers. “Going forward, we are going to expand this program to permanently bring back all previous Rundowns to GTFO in an alternative fashion with changes and improvements. As we don’t remove past content when adding new Rundowns, GTFO now totals 26 playable expeditions – it’s bigger than ever in terms of content and will continue to grow throughout 2023.” 

 

In ALT://Rundown 2.0 Infection, the prisoners are tasked with retrieving a neonate Hydro Stasis Unit (HSU) and bringing it through a mysterious process involving various machines. While doing so, the prisoners will acquire hints of the state of the world outside the nightmarish undergrounds of GTFO

 

GTFO has been making many improvements regarding the overall look and feel of the game since this Rundown was previously released, which will be reflected in this alternative version of the Rundown,” added Björkel.”

 

ALT://Rundown 2.0 Infection is available free for everyone that owns GTFO as a game update. GTFO is available for purchase on Steam for $39.99.
