10 Chambers, based in Stockholm, Sweden, and founded in 2015 by Ulf Andersson, the mastermind of video game heists behind Payday: The Heist and PAYDAY 2, is now working on its sophomore title, Den of Wolves (DoW). DoW is a co-op heist first-person shooter set in a techno-thriller universe where corporations hire criminal operators to take down the competition. You will be gathering your crew, designing a plan, and executing the heist across multiple steps that impact how it goes. 10 Chambers has recently released a new trailer featuring live gameplay, but what makes this stand out from typical trailers is the players featured are fans and not on the dev team.
Den of Wolves—Community Hands-On Trailer
“Absolutely incredible experience being invited to play Den of Wolves early. Planning and executing how you’re going to tackle heists is super satisfying. I had such a blast playing, and I honestly can’t wait for the game to be released.”
RandomKenny, One of the invited players
In the trailer above, you get a glimpse into a heist taking place inside a previously unseen area: a robot factory. We see that our opposition will not only be made up of humans but also robotic enemies. You did not miss it; a release date has still not been unveiled, but for the best of reasons.
“I’ve been begging management to give us a release window for Den of Wolves in the trailer—but no. They won’t budge. These developers really don’t want to make promises they can’t keep for the sake of marketing. It makes my job harder, but as a gamer myself, I respect it. I told them we at least need to prove that the game exists, and that was the starting point for this trailer. We invited some of our most loyal fans to come to our office and play the game. This is real footage of them playing the game—not scripted, not us playing. The game does exist—ask them.”
Robin Björkell Communications Director at 10 Chambers
Yes, DoW is real and will be available to purchase and play once it is ready! So be patient, good people; let the team cook. We know that when it comes to heist games, Den of Wolves is in the best hands, and 10 Chambers is going to deliver something truly special, taking the genre to the next level. And as a personal note, I played an early build of Den of Wolves while at GDC 2025, and you can check out my thoughts and experiences while spending time with the 10 Chambers team.
“Even though we’ve not conducted any closed or public playtests yet, Den of Wolves has over half a million wishlists. We’re so grateful for our community’s support, and we can’t wait to show more details about the game. The reason we’re shy about communicating a release window yet is that we learned our lesson with GTFO, which was delayed multiple times. We don’t think it’s fair to communicate fake dates for the sake of getting an announcement out.”
Oscar J-T Holm, Co-founder of 10 Chambers
If you have enjoyed your time with GTFO, Payday: The Heist, or PAYDAY 2, go add Den of Wolves to your wishlist so you can see why 10 Chambers are the genre leaders.
