Horror Inc. Issues Cease and Desist for ‘Friday The 13th: The Game – Resurrected’ Fan Mod

It was too good to be true for fans of Friday The 13th: The Game. Then again, you also knew it was coming. After the reveal of the Friday The 13th: The Game – Resurrected fan mod last week, Horror Inc. has started sending out cease and desist orders to the developers behind the modding project.

According to FridayThe13thFranchise.com, the letters were sent to the developers of the mod on their Discord channels. The team has already responded on X in regards to the orders, and will comply with the request. They acknowledge that the project is “most likely over”, but do plane to work on other projects. “We are still waiting for response from some people we have contacted, but for now we are working on removing all of Horror Inc’s owned content.”

Not only is the Resurrected project affected, but another modding project, Friday The 13th: The Complete Edition, also received a similar request from Horror Inc. The Complete Edition mod was even older than Resurrected, having been in development over the past couple of years.

The release date for Friday The 13th: The Game – Resurrected was expected on April 15th.

These orders to stop development on the mods are obviously disappointing, and Horror Inc. is well within their rights to issue these requests. Still, from a fan (and in some cases, preservation) point of view, it’s understandably frustrating, since we never got the “definitive” version of Friday The 13th: The Game from Gun Interactive.

However, these requests do seem to point to what longtime franchise composer Harry Manfredini mentioned last year in regards to a new Friday The 13th game being in development. Meaning, that the new game could very well be announced soon.

As for details on the new game, the only info so far is from Manfredini himself, who said that the game will not be another asymmetrcial multiplayer title, and that it will feature “more realistic looking” characters this time around.

Stay tuned, as always.

Cult of the Lamb players will be getting more free goodies later this summer with the Unholy Alliance update. Coming August 12, the update introduces a brand new playable character in the Goat, which coincides with the game allowing local co-op.

With the Unholy Alliance update, the entire Cult of the Lamb campaign will be playable in local co-op. Players will also be able to enjoy special 2-player versions of existing mini-games, such as Fishing and Knucklebones, as well as choose from a selection of weapons, tarot cards, curses, and corrupted relics as your cooperative crusades progress.

The Lamb and Goat can also swap weapons, deal extra damage when fighting back to back, and even deliver a critical hit when their attacks are in sync. Good news for those who prefer to stay alone in their corner: they will be able to benefit from various new powers.

In addition to the addition of cooperative play, the Unholy Alliance expansion adds several tarot cards, relics, buildings, fleeces, character traits and quests, as well as the addition of new secrets to discover.

More information on the update will be released as the launch date creeps closer. Cult of The Lamb is available now on PC via Steam, PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Xbox One, Xbox Series, and the Nintendo Switch.
