As usual with GTFO Rundowns, it's adding a lot of new content: a new environment, called Lab, an all-new horrifying enemy (with the sounds coming out if it actually recorded by one of the developer's younger family members!), seven new expeditions, a bunch of new weapons, and more story. We know you've been wanting to discover the mysteries of the Complex underground, and you will now be able to find more clues to this.

To celebrate the update, GTFO is also 20% off on Steam - so if you have any friends that still haven't joined you down in the Complex, now is a great time!

Get ready for the next GTFO Rundown, namely The Vessel - that will introduce a new environment, called Lab, a bunch of new weapons, a terrifying all-new enemy, and more story! We know you've all have been wondering about what is really happening down in the Complex, and now you will be able to collect more clues and connect the dots.




As tradition has with GTFO, we don’t want to show too much and let you enjoy most of the stuff for the first time in the game. We can, however, tell you that one of the developer’s younger family members have been involved in recording the sounds coming out of the new horrifying thingy (!).



We’ve been making investments to make sure GTFO is the high-quality hardcore experience you need, and help us in the journey towards Version 1.0.

For help with storytelling, we got – since earlier in the development – Adam Gascoine, who has been working on games such as DOOM, DOOM Eternal, and The Last of Us. We have also added strength in programming, and we have found someone very fitting for GTFO for support with art and design. We hope to be able to disclose who this is very soon!



Other than all this glorious in-game content, we will also be adding Steam Trading Cards to GTFO when launching this Rundown. So you’ll be able to collect and trade GTFO themed cards! Nice.

Match-making. We know. Some of you Really – Want – It! And we’re working on it, for real, but it’s not yet ready for this Rundown. We’re doing it the right way, fitting for GTFO, and that takes time.

Until then, don’t forget our Discord that is booming right now. We’re over 185 000 members and one of the most active servers there is. If you haven’t, join us now!

Prisoners! Well done. For the last expeditions of Rundown 002 / Infection to be unlocked - D2 and E1 - The Warden had a specific target number of expedition survivals: over 1000 players had to survive D1.

That number is now reached and the game is updated with R2D2 and R2E1.



Update the game and you will get access.

Good job, Prisoners.
