During Summer Game Fest, Saber Interactive Chief Creative Officer, Tim Willits, world premiered a new gameplay trailer for the upcoming “Evil Dead: The Game” with the help of Ash himself, actor Bruce Campbell.
The new extended gameplay footage highlights some of the in-game features include battle mechanics, playable characters, familiar environments from the series franchise, and more. During the trailer, Bruce Campbell gives the lowdown on the game and lets folks know that while they can play as the Kandarian Demon in the game if they’d like, in doing so, you’re a dick. The trailer also unveiled a few surprises including the inclusion of Cheryl Williams from the original “The Evil Dead” film and Henry the Red from “Army of Darkness” as playable characters.
Coming later this year to PC, PlayStation, Xbox, and Nintendo Switch, “Evil Dead: The Game” brings the biggest characters together from the franchise in an over-the-top, gore-filled experience against the forces of darkness. Work as a team of four survivors, including Ash, Kelly Maxwell, Pablo Simon Bolivar, Scotty, Lord Arthur and more, to fight Deadites, banish the vile Kandarian Demon. Or become the mighty Demon yourself, using your powers of possession to stop the good guys dead and swallow their souls!
Battle across memorable sights from the franchise, including the infamous Knowby cabin, brought to life with tons of terrifying visuals and all-new dialogue from Bruce Campbell. Discover more than 25 weapons, including Ash’s Gauntlet, Boomstick, and chainsaw, and level up a variety of skill trees to grow even stronger and survive the night.
