Posted on 2 weeks ago by Cristopher in News, Switch | 0 comments
Licensing agency Striker LLC has recently mentioned Friday the 13th: The Game as an avenue for fans to experience to franchise. This was all in a recent press release announcing a new partnership with the IP.
The asymmetrical survival horror game, which previously made it to Nintendo Switch, was originally delisted in 2023 with all servers shutting down in 2024. This was due to the developers licensing rights expiring, and therefore being unable to use the Jason Vorhees IP.
The release mentions that they are overseeing all Friday the 13th products and are looking to push the franchise in new ways, specifically name dropping Friday the 13th: The Game. They even group it with more of the franchises projects that are currently in development.
