A brand new MultiVersus gameplay trailer is out, previewing the arrival of Jason Voorhees into the fighting game set to release this month.
After briefly teasing him in the game’s latest trailer, a new video dedicated fully to the Friday the 13th character is out. In it, Velma, Stripe (from Gremlins), and others can be seen investigating a dark house, only to be attacked by Voorhees.
In a voiceover similar to that of classic horror movies, Voorhees is described as a massive brute of a character. The video also showcases some of his moves, including attacking people with a sleeping bag (a nod to one of his famous kills in 1988’s Friday the 13th Part VII: The New Blood), as well as transforming into the cyborg version of himself that appears in 2002’s Jason X.
