Release date: May 26th 2017 (downloadable version) October 13th 2017 (disc version).
Type of game: Multi-player Survival horror.
Story: You play as either a camp councillor trying to escape or as Jason Voorhees killing off the councillors before they escape.
My thoughts: This is an amazing game. Even though it is mainly online multi-player. This game started as a completely different game but then the game designers got the rights to the Friday the 13th films and history is made. As a councillor, you have four ways of surviving the game. You can either avoid Jason (by either hiding under the bed, or inside wardrobes and outdoor toilets), fix a car and drive away (by getting a car battery, petrol, and car keys), fix a motorboat and sail away (by finding petrol and a propeller), or phone the police by fixing a fuse box with a fuse and run to them when they arrive. Also if you die or escape, you might return as Tommy Javis (who has a hunting rifle and is the only one who can kill Jason) if you managed to find a radio and call for help. You can also use objects in the game. They are weapons that you can fight off Jason (an axe, a baseball bat, a blank of wood, a led pipe, a wrench, and a tree branch), things that can stun Jason for short periods of time so you can get away from him (a hunting rifle, a flare gun, a pocket knife, a bear trap, and some fire crackers), a map to show you where you are, a walkie talkie, and a spray can that can be used to heal yourself or others.
As Jason, you only have one goal. And that is to kill off every councillor before they either escape or the time runs out. Also you can choose from eight versions of Jason (plus the copycat from part 5 and a demonic Jason which was a pre-order bonus). This game had an update where there is an offline gaming. But you only play as Jason.
The way you can kill Jason is to have a player come back as Tommy, get Pamela's jumper from Jason's makeshift cabin, get everyone together and attack Jason, knock off Jason's mask, get the player that is wearing the jumper to order Jason to keel down, Then get Tommy to attack him with a machete. That is unless everyone hasn't escaped or aren't idiots.

Any dislikes: Sometimes on the online multi-player you are playing with idiots who either kill the other councillors even if they are playing councillors. Also it is a pain if you are chosen to play as Tommy at times. Especially when you managed to escape but then returned as him and get killed. Also sometimes the game ends when the one playing as Jason leaves the game (sometimes you get just a few seconds of game time).
Other things: There is a virtual cabin where you can walk around freely (in first person view) and look at items. Which will give you trivia about the making of the game and about the movies.
Anything I want to see in a future update or DLC: Other Jasons to play as. Mainly the ones from Jason X, Freddy vs Jason, and the 2009 remake. Also it would be great if we have the option of choosing Pamela Voorhees as the killer. And perhaps a DLC where you can create your own killer. Also it would be great if you can choose to play as Tina Shepard (the psychic girl from part 7). But sadly there was a copyright lawsuit and we'll not be getting any new content.
My score: Five stars.
