Gameplay Trailer for ‘Evil Dead: The Game’ Drops [WATCH]

Just like a Kandarian Demon, the Evil Dead franchise just won’t die. Luckily, that’s a great thing as there are way more studs than duds when it comes to the property. Long ago, there was a game titled Evil Dead: A Fistful of Boomstick that was released. That game was forgotten with time and we haven’t gotten a legit Evil Dead-themed game since. That’s all about to change.

Boss Team Games has developed a game simply titled Evil Dead: The Game. While we saw a trailer for the game last year, the first gameplay trailer was recently dropped. The best part is that Bruce Campbell is back to voice the iconic Ash Williams.

It appears that the game will be strictly multiplayer and focus on team versus team battles. Here’s how Boss Team Games describes it:

Work together as a team of four survivors, exploring, looting, crafting, managing your fear, and finding key artifacts to seal the breach between worlds. Or take control of the powerful Kandarian Demon to hunt Ash and his friends while possessing Deadites, the environment, and even the survivors themselves as you seek to swallow their souls.

Plenty of surprises await in this gore-filled battle against evil that captures the characters, horror, humor, and action from the franchise. Battle across memorable locations including the infamous cabin in the woods, brought to life with tons of terrifying visuals and all-new dialogue from Bruce Campbell. Discover more than 25 weapons, including Ash’s Guantlet, Boomstick, and chainsaw, and advance in a variety of skill trees to grow stronger and survive in this fun co-op and PvP experience.

As unlikely as it was back in the 70s, Evil Dead has become a juggernaut of a franchise. Not only are we getting a new game, but there will also a new movie titled Evil Dead Rises coming out in the near future. It’s a great time to be an Evil Dead fan.
