Improvements Being Made to ‘Part 7’ Jason in ‘Friday the 13th: The Game’

Visually speaking, the most badass playable Jason in Friday the 13th: The Game is The New Blood‘s version, which was of course the first Jason to be played on screen by Kane Hodder. In terms of playability, however, Part 7 Jason has been the subject of countless fan complaints, as he’s perhaps the most ineffective in the game.

The developers have been listening, and they’re making some changes.

“We’ve seen a ton of feedback for a while now about Part 7 Jason being “underpowered” or “weak”, and while we agree that maybe his stats aren’t the best to encourage play over some of the other Jasons, we are not planning a complete reworking of the character,” Gun Media said in a recent forum post. “Even though we aren’t completely reworking the character, we do believe that a couple of tweaks to this character’s strengths and weaknesses will make for a better play experience.”

The following changes will be made:

  • Change 1: We are replacing +Grip Strength with +Weapon Strength. This will help to make Jason’s slashes more harmful to counselors.
  • Change 2: We are replacing -Shift with -Stun. This change will allow for more mobility by Jason.

New and improved Part 7 Jason will arrive in the next update.

The full release of V Rising is coming up quick. And just in case the upcoming Castlevania crossover wasn’t enough, Stunlock has released a new gameplay trailer showing off the new Ruins of Mortium endgame zone for V Rising.

Once the heart of the powerful Vampire civilization, the Ruins of Mortium now lies in ruins, teeming with the cult-like remnants of Dracula’s forces. Players will encounter the Draculin, creatures tainted by Dracula’s influence, and face off against his Vampire Generals. The ultimate challenge awaits as players journey into the depths of Mortium to confront Dracula himself. While battling through his forces and disrupting dark rituals intent on reviving the ancient Vampire king, players will uncover ancient powers and prepare for the ultimate showdown against the tyrant himself.

Ruins of Mortium is just one piece of the new content for V Rising when it launches in full. Here’s a rundown of what to expect:

  • Explore a new deadly endgame zone: The Ruins of Mortium
  • Experience dynamic endgame events
  • Fight a new breed of foe and new V Blood bosses
  • New weapons, A new tier of equipment, and magic improvements
  • Improvements to castle building, decor, and storage
