PAX East saw the debut of new gameplay footage from Friday The 13th: The Game, including the surprise unveiling of a second map to compliment Camp Crystal Lake. Players will now be able to recreate Jason’s kills from Friday the 13th Part 3 with the addition of Higgins Haven.
Higgins Haven is the family retreat of Christina “Chris” Higgins, who halts Jason’s killing spree with an ax to the face in Friday the 13th Part 3. In addition to the main house, Higgins Haven includes a barn and a chunk of Crystal Lake shoreline.
Here’s how it will look in Friday the 13th: The Game:
Of course, it wouldn’t really be Higgins Haven without blood splattering all over the porch.
And here’s a couple pics of the house from Friday the 13th Part 3. It’s pretty much a spot-on recreation.
The addition of a Higgins Haven map in Friday the 13th: The Game should be a big deal to Friday the 13th fans. Its inclusion is a pleasant surprise, since the Kickstarter stretch goal for the additional map was not met. Though Part 3 is rarely named as the best movie in the series, it made a number of consequential additions to the Jason Voorhees saga, including his hockey mask.
Another video showcased at PAX East showed off gameplay, as a player attempts to hide under a bed. Spoiler alert: it doesn’t end well.
