We will continue to offer the title and content at that price point right up until it is removed from digital/physical storefronts on December 31st, 2023.
We would like to thank our community for the dedication they’ve shown to Friday the 13th: The Game and Gun Interactive as a whole, and we are happy the game will live on awhile longer and continue to be enjoyed by anyone owning the game already.
