Developer Gun Media has announced that Friday the 13th: The Game will be getting its final patch this month, which will decommission its dedicated servers.

The news was shared by by the game's lead community developer. "What this means is that the game will revert back to peer to peer matchmaking for Quick Play lobbies. The Database Servers, however, will stay active and continue to house all player progression and unlocks, so users can continue to play Friday the 13th: The Game via peer to peer Quick Play and Private Matches."

This patch is the last for the game, but the devs say you'll still be able to access all the info on the forums as these will be "archived in a locked state." Gun Media will also be winding down its online presence, with social media channels kept for "necessary announcements only." The Double XP, CP, and Tape Drop Rates will also be left "active indefinitely." The announcement finishes with a message to the players. "The team at Gun wants to thank each and every player and fan that has made Friday the 13th: The Game what it is today. We know this news is hard to hear, despite being inevitable. We appreciate each and every one of you." As several TA community members have pointed out, it seems this update shouldn't affect any achievements.

Thank you to everyone who sent this in as a news tip.
