If you’re looking for some interesting pop cultured inspired characters to play in NetherRealm’s Mortal Kombat X, you might have heard that Jason Voorhes of Friday the 13th fame would be making itself into the game. Well if you’re curious as to how the character plays and how gory things could get, wonder no more.
The folks at NetherRealm have recently released the trailer for Jason and as you can imagine, him being of the famed Friday the 13th horror franchise, his moves are pretty gruesome. They’re brutal and straight to the point, demonstrating the same coldness and strength that we have seen from him in the movies.
The character will be playable as part of the Kombat Pack so if you haven’t bought it already, you should as gamers who do will be able to gain early access to the character. Jason’s character also seemingly replaces the iconic Freddy Krueger who has been a popular choice in previous Mortal Kombat games.
It is unclear if Jason will completely replace Krueger, or if Krueger could be introduced to the game at a later date, but for now it certainly looks that way. In the meantime gamers can also expect to see famous movie characters such as Predator which will be released for the game at a later date. For now you can check out Jason’s trailer for Mortal Kombat X in the video above.
