Want to hunt camp counselors as Jason Voorhees wherever you go? Although an ongoing legal battle over the ownership of character and property of Friday the 13th has prevented Gun Media from moving forward with new content in Friday the 13th: The Game, the company will still be able to unleash their creative Camp Crystal Lake kills on Nintendo Switch this spring in an "Ultimate Slasher Switch Edition."

Press Release: Gun Media is happy to announce the award-winning asymmetrical survival horror title Friday the 13th: The Game will be making its way to the Nintendo Switch console in Spring of 2019 with Friday the 13th: The Game Ultimate Slasher Switch Edition. This edition of the Friday the 13th: The Game comes with all released content and paid DLC*, including every Jason Kill Pack, both Counselor Clothing Packs, and the Emote Party Pack.

"We’re happy to be bringing Friday the 13th: The Game to the Nintendo Switch with the help of our partners at Black Tower and Nighthawk. The Nintendo Switch offers a unique experience, in both social settings and on the go, that we feel work very well with Friday the 13th: The Game." - Daniel Nixon, Gun Media Director of Communications
