‘MultiVersus’ – Jason Voorhees Reveal Trailer Shows Off ‘Jason X’ Costume!

It was announced this week that Jason Voorhees will return to the world of video games in WB Games’ MultiVersus, which unites pop culture icons from the Warner Bros. brand.

WB Games and Player First Games will release MultiVersus on May 28, and a brand new reveal trailer this morning fully shows off what Jason is capable of in the game.

For starters, the “Weirdo in a Mask” trailer reveals an alternate costume based on Jason X(!), while also showing off Jason’s slashing skills against Bugs Bunny, Gizmo, and more.

Jason will join the roster as a playable character when the free-to-play platform fighter video game launches. He’s a “Tank class character with a scary moveset that incorporates his axe and machete weapons, teleporting ability to show up right behind opponents and stuff them into a sleeping bag, fatally folding a bed in half to launch enemies off the map, and more.”

Jason’s addition to MultiVersus is a pretty big deal, as it wasn’t all that long ago that the Friday the 13th franchise’s rights issues spelled the end of his own video game. Now that all rights holders are working together, this is only the beginning of the character’s big return.

MultiVersus is a free-to-play platform fighter with an ever-expanding cast of iconic characters and legendary universes, various online modes, in-game events, on-going content-filled seasons, and more.

MultiVersus will be available as a free download for PlayStation 5, PlayStation 4, Xbox Series , Xbox One, and PC via Steam and the Epic Games Store, with full cross-play and cross-progression support.

As for the Jason Universe, that’s promising “activations spanning a wide range of platforms from entertainment, games, immersive experiences, merchandise and more to be announced throughout 2024.” A TV series is also in the works, but no movies at this time.
