Saturday, Behaviour Interactive revealed the latest playable killer coming to asymmetrical PvP game Dead by Daylight: Jason Voorhees. If that has you wondering, 'How was he not in that game already?', you're not alone. In a press release, Horror Inc. executive VP Robbie Barsamian said Friday the 13th fans have been waiting for this collaboration "since Dead by Daylight launched."
That release also revealed some of Jason's abilities (in keeping with DBD's naming conventions, he's called The Slasher in-game). He can turn invisible and reappear at "key environmental points" like breakable walls and pallets, destroying them and causing any nearby survivors to give away their hiding spots with a scream. "Survivors will have to contend with the tension that comes from suddenly losing track of Jason … and knowing a vicious attack could be waiting just around the bend," the release states.
