Friday The 13th
New gameplay for Friday The 13th: The Game has been released and brings us the Misfits' song Friday The 13th & we get another Jason
We just past the first Friday The 13th of the year and while Friday The 13th: The Game did officially release on the date there, that doesn't mean that Gun Media didn't have something to share out to the world to celebrate the date and its correlation to the game and franchise. How was this all done? Well it was done with the announcement of The Misfits song for the franchise is now mixed into the game and can be heard on the campground radios during matches to distract Jason. That and the fact that Illfonic has a new Jason for the game in terms of the Part Six version of the character. Not only in visuals but also in a few new mechanics for the player of Jason in Friday The 13th: The Game.
It's not new that ranged weapons can be used in Friday The 13th: The Game but here we have our first use of it with Jason as this version comes with his own throwing knives to hunt down the counselors at the camp. He also comes with a spear of sorts instead of the traditional machete to add some extra range to his melee attacks but the focus here is mainly that Jason now has some range. Although from the following gameplay it looks like it also has all of the real-world physics to worry about as it isn't as easy as point and click like the shotgun is already. I'm just curious to see what the maximum range on it all truly is though or if Jason can hurl a blade even further than a normal being just because he is Jason and such.
Have a look at the new gameplay showing off the new character for Friday The 13th: The Game and see just how the throwing knives work out when in the hands of the developers. Not only does it look very effective, they are also used in such a way that I think no player would be able to luck out with and would need to script the whole set up and kill. You'll see what I'm talking about as soon as the main kill pops off there.
Friday The 13th: The Game — Misfits And Jason Part 6
Gun Media is proud to announce that the 'Misfits' will joining the soundtrack for the upcoming Friday The 13th: The Game. Their hit song "Friday The 13th" is a tribute to 80's horror and slasher films, which can now be purchased on the bands website.
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.
What do you think about Friday The 13th: The Game giving Jason a bit more range here with the new version of Jason as compared to all of the previous ones? Do you think we will get more songs like the Misfits' one mixed in or will this be the big one here? What do you think the spear will do for Jason besides just give him the extra range to strike with? Let us know your thoughts down in the comments and then feel free to discuss. For more on Friday The 13th: The Game be sure to stick around here as we'll definitively keep bringing you all of the new information as it shows up. Hopefully a solid release date to go with it all soon too.
