Jason is a big addition to Mortal Kombat X, there's no doubt about it. Certainly one of the biggest modern horror icons (if not the biggest), he has legions of fans and seeing him show up in a game that's not, you know, terrible, is neat notion. The extent that NetherRealm and WB are hyping him, however, is fairly shocking.

A TV spot has today been released that features fifteen seconds of Jason footage and a plug to purchase the Kombat Pack to unlock him early.

While TV commercials for DLC aren't unprecedented, this is still a rare and strange site to behold.
