Trivia
- The mask and its relation to Halloween are a reference to the"Friday the 13th" franchise, as its main antagonist, Jason Voorhees, wears a similar mask.
- The Japanese name for this gear intentionally misspells the word for "hockey" (written as ホッケ instead of ホッケー), since it is a homophone for a certain type of mackerel.
- Based on itsSplatNet 2 price, it can be deduced that the normal price of the Hockey Mask would be 8,800 if it were purchasable fromHeadspace rather than obtained from the Nintendo Switch news channel.
