Friday The 13th Game Review: 4 Ups & 5 Downs

3. Lack of Content

Although more content is promised to come at a later time, the current state of Friday the 13th makes it very hard to recommend to anybody.

Although Friday the 13th has always been touted as a multiplayer-centric game, Illfonic have also said that a single-player campaign will be added later. It's great of them to be adding this campaign for free, but it really should have been included in the game's original release, whether or not it meant delaying the game for a few months.

It's not just the lack of single-player that makes Friday the 13th feel bare. The game currently consists of only one game mode across three different maps. No matter how fun the game mode is (or can be), it sucks that the experience is limited to only one thing. The three maps aren't much better, as all feel like they focus around the same sort of theme. Locations from later movies in the franchise such as Hell or Manhattan would have certainly been better than another campground.

It feels like a great skeleton has been set up, without much meat to fill the bones. With some more worthwhile content, the game will definitely be easier to recommend.
