10 Chambers, the 10-person team behind GTFO, is launching a new reality documentary series. Titled Do The Game, the series promises to offer a candid look at the developers as they work to bring its next game, Den of Wolves, to life.
Similar to developer docu-series like 2 Player Productions’ Double Fine Adventure! and Psychodyssey, Do the Game aims to capture Den of Wolves’ creation, which the Stockholm-based 10 Chambers describes as “one of the most intense creative journeys in gaming history.” The series promises to reveal an honest, occasionally uncomfortable look at the team’s struggles and triumphs as it works to bring the game to market.
“With our previous success of GTFO and now working on a major title like Den of Wolves, it might seem glamorous,” says Oscar J-T Holm, co-founder at 10 Chambers in a press release. “However, growing a company while building a game can be incredibly stressful and create tension even between long-time friends. Through this Docu-Reality series, we aim to provide a brutally honest look behind the scenes of all this.”
Check out the teaser trailer below. Do The Game does not have a premiere date.
Den of Wolves was first announced during The Game Awards in 2023 and is a cooperative first-person heist shooter. Players control criminals-for-hire working for rival corporations within a high-tech city built on unregulated innovation. Squads must work together to plan and execute dynamic heists, including espionage, theft, assassinations, or full-on shootouts. 10 Chambers revealed the first look at gameplay during last year’s Game Awards and recently showed off pre-alpha gameplay. Den of Wolves does not have a release window but is slated to launch on PC.
Regardless of how Den of Wolves turns out, seeing more candid behind-the-scenes looks at the game development process is always cool. We’ll see if Do the Game proves to be as earnestly engaging as the two Double Fine docu-series, but anything that sheds light on the realities of game development for the average player is always a good thing.
