14 Things We Learned At The Game Awards 2017

1. Payday's Spiritual Successor Is GTFO

GTFO Game
10 Chambers Collective

The designer of both Payday games has created his own studio, 10 Chambers Collective, consisting of just eight employees, who have created a new four-player co-op horror experience hilariously named GTFO.

The brief trailer is clearly indebted to the squad-based suspense of James Cameron's Aliens, to the extent that there's even a character called Bishop. The developer describes the game thus: "Players get to play as a team of scavengers, forced to explore and extract valuable artifacts from a vast underground complex that has been overrun by horrifying monsters. Gather weapons, tools and resources to help you survive — and work to unearth the answers about your past and how to escape."

From the gorgeous visuals to the prospect of genuinely suspenseful co-op mayhem, and the fact that something so impressive was put together by eight people, there's so much potential here. Hopefully it won't just end up as another Evolve.
