GTFO With FPS Horror ‘GTFO’ Teaser!
Ulf Andersson struck gold when he came up with the Payday series, which I’ve enjoyed immensely (when my teammates cooperate and do their job). Now Andersson and his crew at 10 Chambers Collective have announced another team-based shooter with a horror twist.
GTFO (yes, that’s its name) is described as a “hardcore co-op action horror FPS”, where teams of 2-4 players must work together to survive. According to 10 Chambers Collective member Simon Viklund, “Every expedition in GTFO is unique and the game lets you make informed decisions on what equipment and weapons to bring &emdash; but even then, survival is not guaranteed.”
Obviously, that’s not entirely specific on details. Neither is Ulf Andersson’s description of the game. Andersson describes GTFO as “[going] out to the tight knit, die hard co-op teams of 2-4 people. Technically you can play alone, but really &emdash; the world of GTFO is no place for lone wolves and stragglers. They’ll die, lost in the game’s endless maze.”
If that wasn’t vague enough for you, the game’s teaser trailer hints at that maze taking place under ground, which is both exciting and scary if you’re claustrophobic (and even if you’re not). Hopefully we learn more about this one soon.

We have the Jason Universe to thank for the recent return of Jason Voorhees, with the short film Sweet Revenge and Jason’s arrival in Dead by Daylight helping to bring the hockey mask-wearing horror icon back into our lives. What else is planned, you ask?
In a chat with Variety this week, Jason Universe’s Robbie Barsamian teases that everything we’ve seen up to this point is just the tip of the iceberg when it comes to Jason’s return.
“We’ve been busy behind the scenes laying the foundation that everyone is finally starting to see come to life, but this is just the tip of the iceberg,” Barsamian teases.
“We have a thrilling lineup of new projects that we can’t wait to share more details on soon.”
Barsamian also notes during the chat with Variety, “We want to give fans fresh takes on what they love most about Jason and continue to expand his world in authentic ways that resonate with horror fans today.” One of those expansions will take the form of the upcoming Peacock and A24 series “Crystal Lake,” which stars Linda Cardellini as Pamela Voorhees.
“The Crystal Lake TV series will take fans back in time to tell the story of how Pamela Voorhees came to be the mother of all slashers,” Barsamian tells Variety this week.
“Crystal Lake” premieres October 15 on Peacock.
Callum Vinson (“Chucky”) is playing young Jason in “Crystal Lake,” which will tell the origin story of the masked slasher who has stalked the grounds of Crystal Lake for decades.
Last year, the Jason Universe team had teased that a new movie and a new video game are top priorities for the near future. But at this time we have no updates on either front.
Stay tuned for more from the Jason Universe.
