Friday the 13th: The Game<\/b><\/i>\u00a0is a 2017\u00a0asymmetrical<\/a>\u00a0survival horror game<\/a>\u00a0developed by\u00a0IllFonic<\/a>\u00a0and published by\u00a0Gun Media<\/a>. It is based on the\u00a0Friday the 13th<\/i><\/a>\u00a0franchise. The game was released on May 26, 2017 as a digital release[3]<\/a><\/sup>\u00a0and later released on October 13, 2017, as a physical release[1]<\/a><\/sup>\u00a0for\u00a0PlayStation 4<\/a>\u00a0and\u00a0Xbox One<\/a>. A\u00a0Nintendo Switch<\/a>\u00a0version was released on August 13, 2019.[2]<\/a><\/sup><\/p>\n

The game pits up to seven players controlling Camp Crystal Lake counselors against one player controlling\u00a0Jason Voorhees<\/a>. It is a semi-open world<\/a>\u00a0game, with players able to explore it further.[4]<\/a><\/sup><\/p>\n

Due to licensing issues with\u00a0Victor Miller<\/a>\u00a0who wrote the screenplay for the first Friday the 13th movie, the game servers were shut down in November 2020. However, the game was still available to play online through peer-to-peer matchmaking.[5]<\/a><\/sup>\u00a0The game is to be delisted on December 31, 2023, due to the license expiring. Furthermore, the game’s dedicated servers will also be shut down, leaving players without the ability to join online multiplayer matches.[6]<\/a><\/sup><\/p>\n

Gameplay<\/span><\/h2>\n

Friday the 13th: The Game<\/i>\u00a0is a semi-open world<\/a>[4]<\/a><\/sup>\u00a0third-person<\/a>\u00a0survival horror<\/a>\u00a0game set throughout the\u00a01980s<\/a>\u00a0in a variety of locations in and around the fictional Camp Crystal Lake from the\u00a0Friday the 13th<\/i>\u00a0franchise<\/a>.<\/p>\n

The game is an\u00a0asymmetrical<\/a>\u00a0multiplayer video game<\/a>, with up to eight people able to play in one game session. One player is randomly selected to control\u00a0Jason Voorhees<\/a>[7]<\/a><\/sup>\u00a0whose objective is to kill as many counselors as possible before time runs out. Playing as Jason grants special time-restricted abilities including being able to sense nearby counselors and to teleport anywhere on the map.[8]<\/a><\/sup>[9]<\/a><\/sup>\u00a0The remaining players control the counselors, who can temporarily stun Jason using firecrackers and bear traps as well as the various projectile and melee-based weapons that are found throughout the map. A player on the counselor’s side may also control\u00a0Tommy Jarvis<\/a>, who becomes playable when certain conditions are met.[10]<\/a><\/sup>\u00a0The main objective of playing as a counselor is to escape the map alive, which can be done more quickly by completing the map’s side objectives (which are easier to complete when coordinating with other players) that will allow counselors to escape or to survive long enough until time runs out on the session. Jason may also be killed with an “epic win condition” that requires both teamwork and planning, and is difficult to perform.[7]<\/a><\/sup>\u00a0In order to kill Jason, a female character is needed to find Jason’s shack, don the sweater of\u00a0Pamela Voorhees<\/a>, and claim she is J<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
