Friday the 13th: The Game is an online, asymmetric multiplayer experience where one player will assume the role of Jason Voorhees against seven other players assuming the roles of camp counselors trying to survive the night.

Friday the 13th: The Game will deliver a terrifying combination of features designed to satisfy gamers and fans of the Friday the 13th franchise alike. In addition to bringing the tension and horror of the movies to life, the game will also let players don the mask of Jason Voorhees for the first time and control all new levels of brutal action! The development team had earlier collaborated on the unreleased survival horror-themed game Slasher Vol. 1: Summer Camp and plans to integrate much of that design into the new Friday the 13th game.

After a successful Friday the 13th: The Game kickstarter campaign the team at Gun Media and IllFonic are hard at work bringing Jason Voorhees to life! Kane Hodder, best-known for his portrayal as Jason Voorhees from Friday the 13th: Part 7 through Jason X, has donned the motion capture suit to return to his definitive role, even going so far as to injure himself while performing the iconic sleeping bag kill from Friday the 13th Part 7: The New Blood.

You don’t have to eat, drink or sleep. Just live. That’s hard enough as it is.

The 'Misfits' will joining the soundtrack for the upcoming Friday the 13th video game with their hit song "Friday the 13th" (MISFITS “FRIDAY THE 13TH” CD and LP") is a tribute to 80's horror and slasher films, which can now be purchased on the bands website.

"The inclusion of this track is a dream come true for fans of the genre" said Ronnie Hobbs, Co-Creator of Friday the 13th: The Game." "Like many kids, The Misfits were a huge part of our childhood, so it's an honor to be working alongside those guys".

Also revealed today is the first look at Jason Voorhees as portrayed in Jason Lives: Friday the 13th Part VI. "J6" comes equipped with deadly throwing knives and a lengthy spear-like weapon, perfect for catching fleeing camp counselors.
