The map isn’t yet playable, but you can preview it RIGHT NOW.

Friday the 13th: The Game sure is finishing 2017 strong, just unleashing the year’s final update that brings Friday the 13th: Part 3 character Shelly Finkelstein and, most importantly, offline bots into the game. As of this week, you can play the game all by yourself, which is a huge treat for those who don’t care for multi-player, online gaming.

But that’s not all. The game also unleashed “Virtual Cabin 2.0” this week, an interactive museum/dev diary that teases all kinds of content that’s coming soon to the game.

What’s coming soon? For starters, Uber Jason and a Jason X “Grendel” map!

Loaded with Easter eggs and cut-scenes that recreate iconic moments from the film franchise (at one point, you get to stick a metal fence post into Part 6 Jason’s dead body and bring him back to life!), “Virtual Cabin 2.0” is a whole lot of fun… if you know what you’re doing. It’s essentially a puzzle-based experience that requires you to do certain things in order to advance and uncover new treasures; once you complete three separate phases of the Virtual Cabin, you’re invited aboard the Grendel for a little preview of the Jason X map.

But how do you get to that point? Well, it’ll take you about an hour to play through everything the Virtual Cabin has to offer, and you’ll find a detailed, step-by-step walkthrough over on the game’s Steam community. Print it out, as I did last night, and follow the instructions to get the most out of the Virtual Cabin experience!

And watch out for Uber Jason… he’s out there… waiting to strike…

Dark Fantasy Dungeon Crawler ‘Verho: Curse of Faces’ Launches on Consoles on July 30 [Trailer]

Published

PC gamers have been enjoying CobraTekku Games and developer Kasur Games’ Verho: Curse of Faces for almost a year. And now, console gamers will be able to get their hands on the King’s Field-inspired dark action RPG later this month when the game launches on PlayStation 5, Xbox Series, and the Nintendo Switch on July 30. The release will coincide with the game’s “Chaos” content update.

First launching for PC via Steam and GOG last November, Verho: Curse of Faces takes place after the catastrophic Era of Solitude, where masks have become the only protection against the Curse of Faces, where revealing one’s face means instant death. Humanity was brought close to the brink. After 264 years of “the Era of Solitude,” a symbol of safety appeared in the form of Masks.

While the origins of the curse are still shrouded in mystery, many travelers still venture to the source of this curse in an attempt to reveal its secrets. You must travel to the land of Yariv, find the source of this scourge, and face its dangers. Will you strive to lift the curse from the world, or will you harness its power for your own ends?

Meanwhile, for you speedrunners, the devteams have been holding a contest that just kicked off late last week. The rules are simple:

  • The first three runners win a special Verho package, featuring the following goodies:

    • 1. Place: Life-size Verho Mask, High-Quality Poster, Map – The Continent, Mask-Keychains, and Manual – Limited Edition

    • 2. Place: High-Quality Poster, Map – The Continent, Mask-Keychains, and Manual – Limited Edition

    • 3. Place: High-Quality Poster, Mask-Keychains, and Manual – Limited Edition

Submissions for the contest will end on August 16th, while the prizes will start shipping later this fall. If you have any questions, or you want to give your fellow speedrunners some tips, you can head over to the official Discord channel.
