Final Patch For "FRIDAY THE 13th: THE GAME" Coming November 10th
The end is nigh. News came out this week that the final patch for the very popular Friday The 13th: The Game will take place on November 10th. The patch will fix many issues that users have been ambling to get taken care of for awhile.
After this patch is done, we are told that the dedicated servers for the game will be decommissioned so the studio will no longer be updating the game.
Here are some of the patch updates you can expect…
Commonly referred to as Sliding or Teleporting, the team has fixed an issue allowing players to manipulate combat stance changes.
Abduction, when Jason is able to Morph while holding a counselor, has been fixed.
Mask HP loopholes where use of a flare gun or firecrackers could get the mask to come off too quickly have been fixed.
Jason Kill Sequence – Kneel: The issue where the kneeling animation during the Jason Kill process could be repeated has been fixed.
Hiding Under Bed: An issue where players could hide under beds and become stuck in a way where Jason could not kill them has been fixed. While it is still possible in some instances to cause the bug, the counselor will be able to be killed by Jason in that state.
Tommy Jarvis voice lines have been restored, and this is between him and Jason.
Most importantly, “With this patch, matchmaking will shift away from Dedicated Servers and onto Peer to Peer Matchmaking for all matches.”
The game will still be playable online publicly with the Quick Play option and privately with the Private Match option.
For more on this change, as well as the status of the game going forward, please follow up with our statement here.
Head over to the game’s official forum for a full rundown of the November 20 patch.
Friday the 13th: The Game is available on PS4, Xbox One and Nintendo Switch.
