Evil Dead: The Game

Evil Dead: The Game is a 2022 asymmetric survival horror game developed by Saber Madrid and published by Boss Team Games. It is part of the Evil Dead franchise. It features Bruce Campbell as Ash Williams, along with most of the original cast reprising their roles.

Evil Dead: The Game was released for PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Windows, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X/S on May 13, 2022. A version for the Nintendo Switch was planned, but cancelled in September 2023 along with live content support for the game. It received mixed reviews from critics and sold 500,000 units.

Evil Dead: The Game is an asymmetrical multiplayer game. The game features both co-operative gameplay and player versus player (PvP) combat, although the single-player mode requires an internet connection to be played.

Asymmetrical Mode

4 Survivor players are guided by professor Raymound Knowby and must collect various objects throughout the course of the match in order to win. They must first locate the pages of a map initially in a less chaotic section to allow them to accrue rescources, cars to traverse, and Pink F upgrades. After that, survivors must accrue the lost pages of the Necronomicon and the Kandarian Dagger (in either order or simultaneously) in intense combat areas. After that, they must use the dagger against the Dark Ones in order to start the ritual. They finally protect the Necronomicon for 2 minutes in order to seal the Kandarian Demon and win the match. If a survivor HP depletes, they will become downed and need to be brought back by teammates. If their downed timer expires, they will die, but can still be resurrected by teammates at altars or upon certain objective completion. Though a survivor will remain dead for the remainder of the match at the Necronomicon ritual phase if downed at all.

All the while, the Kandarian Demon (controlled by one player) tries to inhibit the survivors and empower themselves in Dungeon Master-esque gameplay, guided by the deadite Linda. The demon must accrue Infernal Energy in order perform various actions, which is sparse throughout the map but plentiful in combat areas. Through attacking, downing, and pressuring survivors, the Demon will level up gradually throughout the match to unlock more abilities and empower existing ones. With enough Infernal Energy, they have the ability to summon mobs, trap areas and treasure chests, jumpscare survivors (to refill Infernal Energy), take control of their boss character, or posses various things. Possessing mobs will allow the Demon to control them directly with enhanced stats to attack survivors directly. Possessing cars or objects allows the Demon to take control of them and increase the fear of survivors. If the Survivor's fear is high enough, the Demon can posses that survivor giving them full control over their position and being able to attack their teammates to pit them against each other. The Demon wins if all survivors are downed and/or dead at the same time, if they deplete the Neconomicon's health at the finale of the match, or if the initial thirty-minute timer expires (that goes away once at the Dark Ones phase).

The game features four playable survivor classes of Leaders, Warriors, Hunters and Supports, and five playable demons. Leaders have a aura around them that increases the stats for themselves and teammates inside the aura radius, boosting balanced stats and high fear resistance. Warriors are up close mighty glaciers, having high health, shields, and melee damage and speed, but with poor ranged, stamina, and fear resistance. Hunters are offensive glass canons, with the highest ranged damage output and stamina, but with weak health and melee attacks. Supports specialize in keeping their team alive, as they share their Shemp's Cola and Amulets with their nearby teammates and carrying more of them, at the cost of mediocre offensive stats. The Kandarian Demon can be on 5 classes, the Warlord (Henrietta and deadites from Evil Dead II), the Puppeteer (Eligos and Eligos-esque minons from Ash Vs. Evil Dead), the Necromancer (Evil Ash and skeleton army from Army of Darkness), the Plaguebringer (The Witch and pit monsters from Army of Darkness) and The Schemer (Baal and flesh monsters from Ash Vs. Evil Dead).

The game features a level-up system, as well as skill tree mechanics. It features multiple maps, including the cabin in the woods from the Evil Dead film series, along with over 25 weapons, including Ash's chainsaw and boomstick.
