Developer Behind ‘Friday The 13th: The Game’ Is Back With ‘The Texas Chainsaw Massacre’

Gun Interactive, the developer of the online horror multiplayer Friday The 13th: The Game is back with a new online multiplayer based on a classic horror slasher flick, this time involving everyone’s favorite inbred cannibal family with their chainsaw-wielding kin from The Texas Chainsaw Massacre. Gun Interactive is working alongside Sumo Nottingham to bring this 1974 classic to life for PC and next-gen consoles and promise that the game will be authentic to the film it’s based on. It’s no secret that the original The Texas Chain Saw Massacre is probably my favorite horror film ever created. Having the chance to really dive into the world of this IP with the team from Gun and working with Sumo to bring this vision to life has been almost surreal. I can’t wait for everyone to see more of what we’re doing.” says Creative Director Ronnie Hobbs.

Gun Media Permanently Halts All ‘Friday The 13th: The Game’ Developments

Today, the makers of the popular multiplayer horror game, “Friday the 13th: the Game” announced there will no further developments or updates to the game. The game’s developer Gun Media’s founder and President Wes Keltner says all they (the developers) can focus on now with the game is fixing glitches/bugs in the game and maintenance on console servers. The plans for new Jason characters, locations, and councilors were slashed due to an ongoing lawsuit between the original film writer Victor Miller and its director/producer Sean Cunningham who currently owns the rights to “Friday the 13th”. Miller’s suit claims that he is, in fact, the rightful owner of the rights to the franchise since he was the one who wrote the story and created the famous mask wearing antagonist Jason Voorhees. Miller has hinted at some scorn in a past interview he did with us back in 2015. “I know this isn’t the news you wanted to hear and I wish

New “Friday the 13th: The Game” Update Makes Jason Even Deadlier

There were a lot of complaints that Jason Vorhee’s was too powerful when Friday the 13th: The Game first came out. He could teleport, throw knives, and chase down teenagers at inhuman speeds. But as people got better at the game, Jason gradually lost his edge. A team of eight good counselors can absolutely dominate Jason, whooping his ass in ways the big momma’s boy would never be beat in the movies. The good people at Gun Media have felt us gamers pains though, addressing the problem in a post on Reddit. “We’ve seen your reports; our Jason characters aren’t scary. We’ve seen the videos of counselors running circles around Jason and smacking him upside the head, repeatedly, while he quietly resigns himself to his fate. We’ve even seen videos of Jason being forced to run away while being chased by 4 Chads with baseball bats. That’s not cool, and Chad is a dick. As such, we will be implementing

“Friday The 13th: The Game” Reveals New Costumes For Halloween

Now that Friday The 13th: The Game is actually playable, a new problem arises; it’s getting stale. With only one game mode, and counselors and Jason’s who all play pretty much the same, things get repetitive faster than you can swing a machete. But hey, now you can dress everyone up in cool new costumes! The best part by far is Lachappa’s man titties in the wrestler outfit. Yeah, we’re still waiting for a single player mode (or really, any new modes at all), but at least this is something. There’s plenty of DLC planned for the games future, and if the big ass pumpkin indicates Halloween, that means were only about halfway through. And sure, outfits aren’t the biggest addition, but better things are yet to come.

Full Hellfire Jason Designed By Tom Savini Revealed For Friday The 13th: The Game

Gun Media is gearing up to release Friday the 13th: The Game and it is going to be epic. The company has just released a look at the full “Hellfire” Jason from the game, designed by FX master Tom Savini. The “Hellfire” version of Jason was offered only as pre-order special on Backerkit and as a Kickstarter reward. His eyes glow behind burnt, black flesh streaked with fire, and he’s armed with the Devil’s pitchfork. Savini isn’t new to the Friday the 13th franchise. He designed the original version of Jason for the 1980 film, as well Jason in The Final Chapter. The single-player component will arrive this Summer. Those who funded the campaign will have early access to the beta, which includes a code to to make it shareable with up to four players, before the end of this year. The third-person game enables one player to control Jason while the others try to survive as camp councilors. It’s
