Friday the 13th: The Game
A third-person survival horror experience where players either step into the shoes of a teenage camp counselor—or become the legendary killer himself, Jason Voorhees.
Gameplay Overview
Friday the 13th: The Game is a third-person survival horror experience where players either step into the shoes of a teenage camp counselor—or become the legendary killer himself, Jason Voorhees.
In every match, seven players are thrown into a terrifying situation: six must work together (or alone) to survive, while one player controls Jason, whose sole objective is to hunt them down.
As a counselor, your goal is simple—but never easy:
Escape alive
Hide, run, or fight back
Work with others or betray them
Each match feels different, giving you a fresh challenge every time you play.
Play as Jason Voorhees
For the first time, you can fully control Jason Voorhees—the iconic horror villain.
As Jason, you are not just a killer—you are the fear itself.
- Track your victims using supernatural abilities
- Stalk them silently from the shadows
- Execute brutal, cinematic kills
- Grow stronger as the night gets darker
The game allows you to unlock multiple versions of Jason inspired by different movies, each with unique traits and styles.
Strategy & Survival
Survival isn't just about running—it's about making smart decisions.
As a counselor, you have several ways to stay alive:
- Hide and wait for rescue
- Repair vehicles like cars or boats
- Call the police
- Team up and try to defeat Jason
Every choice carries risk. Trusting the wrong player or making noise at the wrong time can cost you your life.
Play as Counselors
Each counselor comes with their own strengths and weaknesses.
Some are faster
Some are smarter
Some are better at repairing or fighting
You can customize and upgrade your characters over time, unlocking new abilities, outfits, and perks. The more you play, the better your survival chances become.
Camp Crystal Lake Experience
The game recreates the iconic Camp Crystal Lake and nearby locations from the films.
- Large open environments
- Famous locations like Higgins Haven
- Randomized item placements
- Ever-changing scenarios
No two matches are ever the same. You can't rely on memory—you must adapt quickly every time.
Progression & Unlocks
The game includes a progression system tied to your account.
As you continue playing, you unlock:
- New counselor customizations
- Different versions of Jason
- Secrets hidden across the map
Exploration is just as important as survival.
A True 80s Horror Tribute
Every detail in the game is inspired by the classic Friday the 13th films.
From visuals to atmosphere, the game perfectly captures the feel of 1980s horror:
- Retro-style environments
- Authentic sound design
- Familiar locations and characters
It feels like stepping directly into the movies you grew up watching.
