Jason Voorhees Makes Great Use of His Machete in Mortal Kombat X

With a character as important as Friday the 13th’s Jason Voorhees, there are a few things you’d expect from his inclusion in a fighting game. Fortunately, a brand new trailer highlights that fans of the horror icon have very little to worry about when it comes to his appearance in Mortal Kombat X.

As you’ll see in the tiny bits of gameplay featured below, Jason brings with him everything folks likely wanted from his fighting style. Though little details have been provided regarding his variations, he has everything that’s made him famous in film, from his gigantic machete to the ominous way in which he shrugs off damage.

Give the trailer a bit of your attention and let us know what you think. More information is planned for a special Kombat Kast later today, so stay tuned.

Jason Voorhees is set to arrive tomorrow, May 5, for those who purchased the Kombat Pack, and will be sold separately on May 12.
