Behind the Scenes: GTFO Developer 10 Chambers Unveils ‘Do The Game’ Documentary Series
Stockholm-based game development studio 10 Chambers, the team of ten individuals known for the acclaimed title GTFO, has announced a new project outside the realm of interactive entertainment: a reality documentary series titled Do The Game. This series aims to provide viewers with an unscripted and revealing perspective on the studio as they dedicate their efforts to creating their highly anticipated next game, Den of Wolves.
A Candid Look at Game Development
Echoing developer-focused documentary series such as 2 Player Productions’ Double Fine Adventure! and Psychodyssey, Do the Game will chronicle the intricate process behind the creation of Den of Wolves. 10 Chambers describes this undertaking as “one of the most intense creative journeys in gaming history,” promising an honest, and at times, raw depiction of the team’s challenges and successes as they navigate the complexities of bringing a major title to the gaming market.
Oscar J-T Holm, co-founder of 10 Chambers, stated in a press release, “Following the success of GTFO and now developing a significant project like Den of Wolves, there’s an external perception of glamour. However, the reality of growing a company while simultaneously developing a game can be incredibly demanding and can strain even the strongest professional and personal relationships. This docu-reality series is our attempt to offer a genuinely unfiltered glimpse into these behind-the-scenes realities.”
Teaser Trailer Available
A teaser trailer for Do The Game has been released, offering a first look at the upcoming series. As of now, a premiere date for Do The Game has not been disclosed.
Den of Wolves: A Cooperative Heist Shooter on the Horizon
Den of Wolves, first revealed at The Game Awards in 2023, is designed as a cooperative first-person heist shooter. Players will assume the roles of freelance criminals operating within a technologically advanced city fueled by unregulated innovation, working for competing corporate entities. Success in Den of Wolves hinges on strategic teamwork as squads plan and execute dynamic heists involving espionage, theft, assassinations, and intense firefights. 10 Chambers initially showcased gameplay footage during the previous year’s Game Awards and has recently presented pre-alpha gameplay demonstrations. The release timeframe for Den of Wolves remains unannounced, but the game is confirmed for launch on PC platforms.
Anticipating an Authentic Depiction of Game Creation
Regardless of the ultimate reception of Den of Wolves, the increasing availability of candid, behind-the-scenes perspectives on game development is a welcome trend within the gaming community. The industry awaits to see if Do the Game will achieve the same level of authentic engagement as the Double Fine documentary series. Any initiative that illuminates the realities of game development for the average player is ultimately a positive step for fostering understanding and appreciation of the craft.
