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.
You don’t have to eat, drink or sleep. Just live. That’s hard enough as it is.
Friday the 13th: The Game has surpassed 1.8M unit sales since launch to Xbox One, PlayStation 4 and Steam.
"It's been a long two months from our team here at Gun and IllFonic,' says Wes Keltner, Gun Media studio head. 'We have had an incredibly supportive and dedicated community since we launched, and while things haven't been completely smooth we definitely feel confident moving forward. The team has grown and we are committed as we work to add more content, more kills, more to do and of course the single player component to the game.'
'This game started as a dream and was supported by over 55,000 backers and has since become something larger. We have increased our staff, we're squashing bugs and working with two third party teams to ensure the future of this game in all of it's gory glory. Jason definitely lives, and it's been an honor bringing him to fans, new and old."
The physical retail version will launch on Friday the 13th, this October at most major retailers. It will feature an exclusive free Bloody Jason skin variant for all playable Jason versions in the game, as well as a free clothing pack for all playable camp counselors.
The game retails for $39.99USD both for digital and physical versions.
