The asymmetrical multiplayer horror game from IllFonic has been subjected to a number of updates since release, which has helped Friday the 13th: The Game through some pretty ropey times. The developers are working hard on responding to feedback and working on it, and they have done so once more by making Jason deadlier than ever.
Gun Media has given fans a heads up on what the changes are, stating the following on a post on the official forums:
- Each Jason will be gaining a small speed increase – this is not so fast as to make it impossible for counselors to escape from a Jason player, but it is enough to make Jason feel more relentless.
- Each Jason will start with 2 additional throwing knives.
- Jason’s grab reach and radius have been looked at and reworked – this should help alleviate the issues players are reporting of counselors slipping through Jason’s fingers, while still retaining a fair grab range for counselor players
.
The patch is set to arrive later this week at some point, and further updates are being teased for the game by the developers.
Friday the 13th: The Game is now available for purchase on PC, PlayStation 4 and Xbox One.
