My thought on the new killer and why its not jason.
Friday the 13th has its own game that is on year 4 but cannot release content because of the Lawsuit going on rn. Friday the 13th the franchise is in a lawsuit w itself, the writer and production company are going against each other for copyright, The Author of course wrote it but The production company says that it was a "script for hire" so it belongs to them... This final hearing was to be Settled in February 2020 with a release of the final outcome in Summer 2020 so how would they be able to make Jason their first new licensed killer if a game that has Jason cant even add content... Also Candyman will probably be the second one because the movie drops in september, and last year we had Ghostface for anniversary and stranger things dropped in september after season 3 aired. Im leaning towards Pennywise for this first License tho.
