Former Payday Dev Is Working on a New Co-Op Heist FPS

The new title developed by Ulf Andersson's 10 Chambers studio is set to be a heist first-person shooter with a cyberpunk style and focus on co-op play. 

Ulf Andersson, who was a designer on Payday and Payday 2 before becoming CEO and creative director of 10 Chambers, revealed that his new studio is developing a new game that will be able to rival Andersson’s original creation.

Speaking to NME, Andersson shared that 10 Chambers' new title will be a heist first-person shooter with a cyberpunk style and focus on co-op play. 

"I'm back on the heist s**t, basically," he said. "So, it's a heist cooperative FPS, and it has a sort of a techno-thriller theme. I read a lot of sci-fi books, and so imagine everything that cyberpunk is inspired by, and a ton of other s**t."

Andersson also added that unlike Payday games, where players had to gun their way out of the bank and rampage through the streets with sports bags full of cash, this new title won't be "a constant shooting." Besides, the project is aimed to avoid the issues of prior games.

"This one won't be constant shooting," Andersson explained. "Payday had a massive problem where the action would ramp up and then it would just stay ramped up."

The developer also noted that the new title is set to be easier than 10 Chambers' previous game, GTFO, which was meant to be difficult – with things getting harder the deeper players go. 

"You can sneak for an hour, at least and then just f*****g die, right?," Andersson said about GTFO. "So [the new title is] not gonna have that hardcore thing to it. It is more mechanically smooth, or you could say, easier to play."

10 Chambers' new title is currently in the pre-production stage. It doesn't have a name or a release date as the studio doesn't want to "miss a deadline or overpromise" but, according to Andersson, "things are ramping up quite fast" so probably we will learn more about the game in the near future.
