As someone who was Jason Voorhees for Halloween in fifth or sixth grade (probably not a great idea today), I’ve definitely been looking forward to stepping back into the hockey mask in Friday the 13th: The Game. So it shouldn’t come as too much of a surprise that I’ve found taking on the persona of Jason and roaming around as an iconic invincible force of murder is the highlight of this asymmetrical multiplayer killing spree. Unfortunately, the large majority of your time is spent controlling the machete-fodder, who are much less fun.
Jason will be set loose on gamers tomorrow, but I’ve been running for my life on the PC version for a couple days now. Note that a big part of why we do reviews in progress for multiplayer games is to test out servers in a live environment before we finalize our score. Usually that’s to test and see if a game performs as well after release as it did before, but in this case I’m hoping the servers stabilize in time for the official launch. Pre-release servers have been pretty shaky, and multiple matches have crashed due to server disconnects. We’ll keep playing and hoping for the best, but at the moment that’s one of the scariest things about this game.
