'Friday the 13th: The Game' (ALL) Gets Release Date - Trailer

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 game will launch with multiplayer-only game play allowing players for the very first time to take on the role of Jason Voorhees in his various incarnations throughout the storied franchise spanning three decades! This 1v7 asymmetric multiplayer title will pit Jason against seven counselors as they try to survive in three maps spanning Camp Crystal Lake, Higgins Haven and Packanack Lodge. 

Friday the 13th: The Game will be available as digital download on PS4, Xbox One and PC (Steam) starting May 26th, 2017 for $40USD.
