A multi vs. solo player Friday the 13th game is in production. Positioned as an “asymmetrical, co-operative and competitive multiplayer predator/prey horror experience,” the game is currently in development at an unnamed studio. This is not a reboot of the terrible NES game.
“We have some exciting new ideas for a game that supplies plenty of replay value, while delivering the kinds of thrills and scares that fans of the franchise have come to expect,” Friday the 13th creator Sean S. Cunningham tells EGM. The game’s October launch will coincide with a new film and television series. The studio in charge of the game will be announced “in the coming weeks.”
