Dead by Daylight adds Friday the 13th’s Jason Voorhees in June

About time.

Dead by Daylight will add Friday the 13th‘s iconic killer Jason Voorhees as part of an update that will release on 17 June here in Australia.

“The mask is on. The machete is dripping. The massacre has begun,” developer Behaviour Interactive said in a teaser video, which we’ve embedded below.

Beyond the tease, we don’t know much more about what Jason will bring to the asymmetrical horror title; a larger livestream of the killer is planned for 15 June here in Australia (right in time for Summer Game Fest).

Jason has appeared in a number of video games and game franchises to date, including appearances in MultiVersus and Mortal Kombat X alongside his own, now-shuttered, asymmetrical horror title. He’s also in Friday the 13th Killer Puzzle, which we adore.

We’ll have more on Jason as it’s revealed.

Dead by Daylight is currently available on Windows PC, Xbox One, Xbox Series S, Xbox Series X, PS4, PS5, and Switch.
