A year after his last solo foray into gaming was cut shockingly short by rights issues and sunsetting servers, horror icon Jason Vorhees is getting another chance to bring his murderous rampages to consoles and PC.
Horror Inc., the company behind the newly launched “Jason Universe,” announced that a new Friday the 13th video game is in the works.
Horror Inc. Vice President Robbie Barsamian spilled his guts on the project over the weekend at San Diego Comic Con, as first reported by horror website Bloody Disgusting.
It’s a tragic story that has become all too common in the gaming space, as video game preservation still lags woefully behind that of film and music.
A collaboration with a studio like Bloober Team, which has done exceptionally well with 2024’s Silent Hill 2 remake, could be an interesting twist on a survival horror game starring the genre’s most famous murderer.
