Just days after the announcement of the Jason Universe, which promised upcoming video games and more as part of a whole new era for the Jason Voorhees character, a new trailer for the relaunch of MultiVersus this morning has confirmed Jason is coming to the game.
WB Games and Player First Games will release MultiVersus on May 28, with the video game uniting pop culture icons from the Warner Bros. brand. That includes Stripe from Gremlins and Jason Voorhees himself, whose movie rights are under the WB/New Line umbrella.

Jason’s addition to MultiVersus is a pretty big deal, as it wasn’t all that long ago that the Friday the 13thfranchise’s rights issues spelled the end of his own video game. Now that all rights holders are working together, this is only the beginning of the character’s big return.
MultiVersus is a free-to-play platform fighter with an ever-expanding cast of iconic characters and legendary universes, various online modes, in-game events, on-going content-filled seasons, and more.
MultiVersus will be available as a free download for PlayStation 5, PlayStation 4, Xbox Series , Xbox One, and PC via Steam and the Epic Games Store, with full cross-play and cross-progression support.
As for the Jason Universe, that’s promising “activations spanning a wide range of platforms from entertainment, games, immersive experiences, merchandise and more to be announced throughout 2024.” A TV series is also in the works, but no movies at this time.
