Will Evil Dead: The Game Have A Single-Player Mode
Evil Dead: The Game is set for release this week, and the question percolating in the minds of many is whether it will have a proper single-player mode. It's already known that the title's primary focus is on an asymmetrical four-player experience that may bring to mind games like the Friday the 13th and Dead by Daylight with their killer-player gameplay, but the loop departs from the formula popularized by those games. Like titles with trial and challenge-based single-player modes, developer Saber Interactive has confirmed Evil Dead: The Game has a non-traditional single-player option.
Unlike the more recent survival-style asymmetrical games, Evil Dead: The Game gives players far more than surviving. Starring the titular character Ash Williams and several returning characters across the films and TV series, Evil Dead: The Game's primary mode pits four players against a fifth player. The fifth player takes control of a Kandarian demon, as shown by Evil Dead trailers that can possess various objects and characters (such as the players) to impede their progress. The four hero players engage with NPC Deadites, traps placed by the Kandarian player, and those possessed as they seek the collect the Necronomicon to win the game. For the «survivor» characters, the game focuses less on running and hiding, and more on brutal action combat; these individuals are more warriors than frightened teens and adults, much like their film and movie counterparts.
