The game
PapaKow & Bodycam
Bodycam is the Unreal Engine 5 shooter that looks like actual body-camera footage — photoreal maps, a swaying first-person camera and gunfights that end in one or two shots. Reissad Studio, a two-person French team, shipped it into Early Access in June 2024, and the Locked & Loaded update (v0.8) rebuilt the animations and reloads, added a full body system, weapon customisation and a new Trenches map.
Modes are small-team: Team Deathmatch, Body Bomb (plant/defuse), Hide & Seek and a few rotating specials, on tight maps where sound and corner discipline decide everything.
Why PapaKow plays it
Because it's the tensest ten minutes in FPS. No HUD to lean on, no respawn brain-off — you clear a corner properly or you're watching the killcam. It's a change of pace from the big WARDOGS fights and it makes for the best jump-scare clips on the channel.
How he plays it
Slow and quiet, mostly on Fridays and Sundays when chat votes for it. Karl runs viewer squads for Body Bomb and calls it a night when the Sunday squad's nerves are gone.

Questions about Bodycam
Is Bodycam worth it?
For the visuals and the tension, yes — nothing else looks like it. It's still Early Access with a small team, so content drops in big updates like Locked & Loaded rather than constant patches, and the player count is modest outside those spikes. Watch PapaKow's Bodycam clips on papakow.com to see if the slow, one-shot style is for you before buying.
What is the Bodycam Locked & Loaded update?
Locked & Loaded (version 0.8) is Bodycam's biggest update: rebuilt weapon animations and realistic reloads, a new full-body system, weapon customisation, a realism overhaul and the Trenches map. It's the version PapaKow is streaming now.
When does PapaKow stream Bodycam?
Bodycam comes up on Friday nights after The Finals and on Sunday variety days, whenever chat votes for it. PapaKow streams Thursday 6–10 pm, Friday 6 pm until late, and Saturday and Sunday from 10:30 am until late (Brisbane time, AEST — no daylight saving).
