‘Friday The 13th: The Game’ 6/14 Xbox One Patch Notes

Friday the 13th: The Game

Friday The 13th: The Game has been out for a few weeks now but all the bugs and issues haven’t yet been ironed out. The developers have been hard at work on an Xbox One matchmaking update, designed to make things more stable. With this patch, Xbox One players should be able to enter games much easier using the Quick Play function.

The patch also targeted bug fixes and exploits such as counselors getting on roofs or escaping via to police although they were being killed by Jason. One big change that might cause some controversy is the betrayal penalty increasing. Many times we have accidentally killed a fellow counselor with the shotgun while trying to save them from Jason’s grab. The full patch notes are below and you can read more in-depth about the changes on the game’s official Facebook page.
