Thoughts on Jason Voorhees...
Well, I saw the need to do this kind of discussion again, about Jason ... I still can't help but think that we have Michael, Leatherface, Freddy Krueger and Ghostface, but not Jason ... To think that he is one of the villains most iconic of all the cinema and not include him with people at his level who are here. The license if you can say that he is dead and lost, I have lost count, I think it is like 5 years of lawsuit? or 6? It is the most depressing thing to think, if Behaviur had had the opportunity, they could have saved themselves in creating Hag and putting Jason in that chapter while there was no demand ... On the one hand it is sad, I visualize that we will have Candyman, Alien, Pinhead and Chucky as the last license slashers of the 80's. Someday it will come? ... Maybe we will never know ...

It would be awesome!
Jason Voorhees is the most classic slasher of all time, I'm 100% confident we will eventually get a Friday the 13th chapter.
Its just been license issues that have prevented it.

That is not under BHVRs control. If they would be able to add Jason, they would do it probably immediatly. But it is not possible at the moment.
I dont know if it would have been possible when the game first launched (dont know since when the Lawsuit is going on), but it would have been far too expensive at this time.

when the Jason's rights are properly owned by someone (when the lawsuit ends), he will probably get in.
but you know... lawsuits are not famous for being fast.

- He belongs, unquestionably. The game is noticeably incomplete by his absence.
- Legal technicalities suck.

On the one hand, yes, it would have been too expensive in these times when Friday the 13th the game was triumphing and Dead by Daylight was receiving little attention due to its existence, but, can't they get the rights to just any hockey mask? Could you call him The Camper and put someone else under the mask and give him Jason's abilities? That worked with Ghost Face not being able to get the one from Scream, but the rights is an obstacle and a problem, I am aware that they can create a special model for him, but it would harm the Behaviur company as much as the game itself.

I hope, someday. He's the final puzzle piece, ofc there are extra pieces but yeah.

From what I heard (I forget where, however), the lawsuit MIGHT see its end this year. Of course, that news was maybe pre-COVID or maybe halfway through 2020, so the whole world being a flaming ball of depression may have delayed that.
