One of the most common methods of escape is repairing the car. There are two cars located on each map; the two-seat car and the four-seat car. Both cars require a battery, gas, and keys for an actual escape. Parts for the cars are located in random cabins throughout the map, and sometimes even in structures like the boathouse or barn. Keys are found in drawers inside of cabins, which again are completely random each time. 

What makes this method tricky is that Jason is immediately alerted when a player starts the car. Jason can then use his Morph to teleport to wherever the car is on the map, thus interfering with a quick escape. Most players aim to “bob-and-weave” around Jason so they can drive the car up the camping trail to the main road. An experienced Jason will catch on quickly and use his abilities like Shift and Morph to prevent the car from reaching the exit. Make sure you put the pedal to the metal and speed on out!

3. Repair the Boat

Another common escape route is repairing the boat. To repair the boat, counselors need to find the gas and propeller. As mentioned before, the gas can be found inside any random cabin on the map. The propeller can also be found inside of a cabin, but it’s never found inside of a drawer. The propeller is usually on a desk, table, or shelf inside of the cabin. Once the gas and propeller are installed in the boat, up to two counselors can escape by climbing in the boat and following the map to the lake’s red exit markers.

This chance of escape is considered to be more difficult than calling the police or repairing the cars, as a certain amount of stealth and skill is needed to complete this Objective. Just like the car, Jason gets an alert when the boat has started. The trouble is, if you’ve got a Jason with great Water Speed, he can catch the boat quickly and drown the counselors in the water. 

2. Survive for 20 Minutes

Another form of escape is as blunt as it sounds: survive. Counselors can rummage through various cabins scattered around the map. Counselors can retrieve items such as pocket knives, med-sprays, walkie-talkies, and large maps in-cabin drawers. Cabins also include a lineup of weapons to choose from, such as a baseball bat or flare gun. Players controlling counselors have the opportunity of surviving the night by lasting the entire 20-minute match, doing whatever it takes to defend themselves against Jason. Counselors can lurk in the shadows and vault through windows to shake Jason off their tails. So fill your pockets with goodies, grab a weapon, and try to stay alive! 

1. Kill Jason

Arguably the most popular way of escape would be to kill Jason. Despite its popularity, it is certainly no easy task to complete. Killing Jason comes with several steps that need to be done first. Tommy Jarvis must first be called using the CB Radio, only after at least two counselors either escaped or died. A Female Counselor then needs to locate Jason’s shack on the map and steal Pamela’s Sweater. Once Tommy has arrived, counselors can work together to knock Jason’s mask off using a variety of weapons. Once his mask is off, all that’s left is for the Female Counselor to stun Jason using Pamela’s Sweater long enough for Tommy Jarvis to inflict some revenge by killing Jason.

As mentioned before, this is a method that requires a lot of steps and for everyone to be on board for getting the job done. With this in mind, it is the method that will give you plenty of bragging rights and in the minority of those that have killed Jason.
