Biography Flash: Jason Voorhees Slashes into Fortnite, Call of Duty & Your Nightmares in 2025

Jason Voorees Biography Flash a weekly Biography. Well, hi. You’re listening to the Jason Voorees Biography Flash—the only podcast brave and/or sleep-deprived enough to comb through the internet, your Twitter draft folder, and the weird corners of Reddit just to keep you abreast of every cough, grunt, and machete swing from Camp Crystal Lake’s most famous (and only?) resident. I’m Marcus “Marc” Ellery. And, full disclosure: If you were looking for someone less biased than a man who owns at least three hockey masks and refers to his houseplants as “the great stalkers,” you came to the wrong place. Let’s start with the big news, because 2025 is absolutely the year of Voorheesian Renaissance—or, as my therapist calls it, “unhealthy fixation.” First up, the big digital crossover event: according to multiple gaming sites, Jason Voorees is now officially hacking and slashing his way through the Battle Pass of Fortnite’s Fortnitemares, thanks to an update that went live in time for this year’s Halloween.

There’s a “Slash Deathmatch” mode where two lucky winners each round get to wield that iconic machete. And, for the tactical crowd, there’s even a “Tactical Jason” Ultra Skin—perfect for those times you want to look good while you’re terrorizing a map. The event is packed with horror icons, but to be honest, I think we all know that Jason is the true MVP. The real kicker? This is all thanks to the newly launched “Jason Universe,” which is apparently the official rebrand for the franchise. So, as of now, the Voorhees family is, officially, a cinematic universe. I never thought I’d see the day where Jason’s more marketable than the cast of Friends Reunion, but here we are. Of course, nothing brings the memes like good old-fashioned cinematic canon warfare. According to Bloody Disgusting and CBR, Freddy vs Jason is having a streaming renaissance, with HBO making it a marquee title in their Halloween lineup. The debates are raging: “Who would win in a fight?” “Do dream blades beat machetes?” “Does Jason ever sleep?”—you know, the big questions.
