    If you’re a die-hard fan of the franchise, you might get a few nostalgic kicks out of Friday the 13th: The Game. But if you’re simply looking for a horror-themed multiplayer, this doesn’t hold a candle to Dead by Daylight, which itself is coming to Switch next month. Do yourself a favour, and pick that up instead.

    I don't generally bother with reviews but thought it was necessary to warn switch owners about this game . I'm also not sure if this onlyI don't generally bother with reviews but thought it was necessary to warn switch owners about this game . I'm also not sure if this only applies to European servers or whether others are having the same problems. So firstly , When you can get a game to play from start to finish ( Not very often at all ) its enjoyable to play, Yes the graphics wont win any awards and its a little clunky but it has a great tense atmosphere and feels pretty good if you get the parts and escape by car or boat . There is a fair amount of grinding which isn't so bad if you like that kind of thing . Along with a decent selection of maps atmospheric music etc means it has the potential to be really enjoyable . The bad and its really bad , Upwards of 5 - 10 mins mins to find / enter a match (This isnt because of a lack of people trying to play ) , constant disconnects when playing ( all your xp lost ) and glitches in game . I have in a 24 hours period with hours of trying to join games successfully finished around 20 games . This is the first game i where i have contacted nintendo for a refund as i'm not willing to risk £35.99 on a game that may work one day . pretty disgusting to release a game in this condition. Before anyone considers it may be my connection every other game i play on switch or PC is fine . The score of 3 would be 7 or 8 if the game wasn't broken.… Full Review »

    I've played this game for awhile on PS4 and liked it enough to pick up on Switch. If you're a horror movie fan you'll really like this game.I've played this game for awhile on PS4 and liked it enough to pick up on Switch. If you're a horror movie fan you'll really like this game.

    This game is a lot of fun whatever system you're on. Yes it does have glitches and the learning curve learning curve can be tough in the beginning but after an hour or two you'll get the hang of it.

    It doesn't take long to find a game on Switch and I almost always get a lobby in less than 2 mins. Overall you'll have a lot of fun even with the glitches and some toxic members in the community. It's kinda fun to kill toxic councilor players when they're toxic

    Overall I'd but it again at $40.
