‘Friday the 13th: The Game’ Celebrating Launch Anniversary with 130% XP Bonus
Believe it or not, we are approaching the one-year anniversary of the digital release of Gun Media and Illfonic’s excellent Friday the 13th: The Game, which debuted May 26, 2017. I don’t know about you, but a year later, you can still find me curling up on the couch and killing camp counselors. And I’m particularly excited for this coming Thursday, which will see the launch of Single Player Challenges and various other updates.
Also on May 24, the game will implement a 130% XP Bonus as well as Doubled Tape Drops, from 4pm Eastern on May 24th through 4pm Eastern on the 29th!
The XP bonus, in particular, should be taken advantage of, as new features, characters and versions of Jason can only be unlocked when your XP number is high. So whenever you’re given the opportunity to jack that number up quickly, don’t miss out!
