Evil Dead Developers Reveal More About the Game's Story
The much-awaited Evil Dead: The Game is finally arriving soon, based on the incredibly popular horror movie franchise Evil Dead. While it will still be a multiplayer-focused title, the developers at Saber Interactive have unveiled key details on the game's story and single-player offerings this week, ahead of its release on May 13th.
Evil Dead: The Game sees series' protagonist Ash Williams (played by Bruce Campbell) banding together with just some of his fan-favorite allies over the years to battle the forces of evil. Originally revealed at the 2020 Game Awards, the game was conceived as a multiplayer-focused team game with little-to-no single-player content advertised at all. However, after some fan backlash and deliberations, Evil Dead: The Game was delayed last August to bring a more robust single-player offering.

Saber's efforts have indeed paid off, and key Saber Interactive developers on the project, Tim Willits and Craig Sherman, went all-in on just what solo players can expect from Evil Dead: The Game. They explain that since the nature of the game is still focused on team play, it is not a full campaign experience, but rather a remix of the multiplayer modes with computer bots instead of real players. While this may come as a disappointment to some, the devs assure that there will be content unique to the single-player mode that offers more in-depth lore and explanations of the main game's events, as well as «a handful» of side missions that players can engage in. Completing these single-player missions will then allow you access to cosmetic gear as well as lore content known as the «Knowby Recordings».
