After a hands-on demo with 10 Chambers Collective’s GTFO, I’m not sure how anyone could expect to complete a level on their first try. The four-player cooperative shooter is punishing; its twisted, deformed enemies charge at you in packs, always striking at the worst possible moment. They’re capable of swarming even the best squad if one player lets their guard down for a second. And when that happens — when the chaos of combat in dark caves requires everyone’s attention — an errant bullet can spell a quick defeat. Friendly fire is just as dangerous as a mob of enemies.
To make it in GTFO, all four players must move as a single unit. Methodical preparation and firm, direct communication are just as, if not more, important than a fully-loaded gun. This is a horror shooter for the hardcore crowd.
