14 DAY TRIAL // 10 Chambers Collective, the studio behind that 4-player co-op action/horror GTFO, announced they're releasing the biggest so-called Rundown update since the game's initial launch. Dubbed Rundown 004, the update brings two much-awaited gameplay features: matchmaking and a layered difficulty system.
For those unaware, GTFO uses a Rundown concept, where the game is regularly updated with new expeditions like maps, scenarios, enemies, and so on, which replace the previous ones. Besides the two new features mentioned above, the Rundown 004 update also adds a new environment, new enemy, new weapons, and tools.
“This Rundown is easily our biggest update yet. We’re adding core features such as matchmaking, and introducing a new system we call "layered difficulty". Depending on what route you choose throughout some of the expeditions, you will find it either very hard - or extremely hard. This will make it easier - or should I say less hard - for new players to take on GTFO, but at the same time giving our more seasoned community members a hardcore challenge right from the first expedition”, says Ulf Andersson, Creative Director of GTFO.
Matchmaking will help new players quickly find others to join them down in the Complex, the underground facility where the game takes place. According to developers, matchmaking will be in alpha in the new Rundown and the features will be updated continuously until it's perfectly balanced for the system.
GTFO takes place in a terrifying underground facility called “the Complex”, where your team’s survival relies on your ability to communicate, coordinate - and count your bullets. In the new update, players will explore the data center of the Complex for the first time. The new Rundown also comes with a range of weapons and tools, which will come in handy when you encounter the new, creepy enemy.
The new update, named Contact (Rundown #004), is now available to everyone that owns GTFO Early Access. When owners update the game, it will wipe and replace the previous Rundown with the new one. Also, those who don't yet own the game will be pleased to know that GTFO Early Access is available on Steam for €35/$35, but to celebrate the update, the developers offer a 20% discount for a limited time.
