Jason Voorhees is a fashionable lad, isn’t he? The guy knows how to rock a hockey mask, perhaps even a hockey mask, another hockey mask, or just a sack over his head. He’s a versatile fellow, that’s for sure. That’s why the developers of Friday the 13th, that upcoming asymmetric horror multiplayer game based on everyone’s favourite murderer, are showing off the different faces of Jason.

In Friday the 13th, the person playing the killer will get to choose between a bunch of different Jason incarnations, each with unique statistics and abilities. Unfortunately there’s no Jason X (DLC?), but there’s a fair amount of choice. Some of them can even run!
Without further ado, here are the 50 (seven) shades of Jason Voorhees:

- Shift – Slower cooldown on this ability.
