Check Out the First Gameplay Trailer for ‘Friday the 13th: The Game’

I suppose I shouldn’t be surprised by this, but it’s pretty damn apparent that Jason Voorhees needs a nerf.  Dude is just teleporting all over the place and emerging out of the shadows like an undead ninja. I don’t know how these hapless teens are going to survive, but I’m eager to find out.

Gun Media has released the first gameplay trailer for their upcoming “Friday the 13th” game and it looks like they’ve managed to successfully capture the feel of the classic slasher series.  In the trailer below you see Jason use abilities to quickly move around a map and surprise teenagers with brutally painful kills.

But the teens aren’t completely helpless.  For one thing, they can run.  And wiggle out of Jason’s death grip.  They can also try to be clever by using misdirection to lure Jason away.  There are some clever simple mechanics at work here that could lead to the ultimate cat and mouse game.  Check out the gameplay trailer below and let us know what you think.
