I see Kelly but no Pablo? Looks like she plucks a bunch of people from the past, including young Ash.

[Leo656]

Looks pretty cool, let's hope it's good.

I keep hearing it's a PvP game, which automatically disappoints me. Looked really cool though.

Hmf. Kind of like Friday the 13th: The Game?

[Leo656]

Awwww, that's a shame. I don't f*ck with those.

I have absolutely no idea. It's a co-op PvP, whatever that means. Not really my kind of game. Couldn't get into Friday the 13th either.

[Andrew NDB]

It's a co-op PvP, whatever that means.

Yeah... my guess is that 3 people get to play as various Evil Dead characters (Ash, Kelly, the knight guy, the other guy, probably other characters they'll reveal like Old Ash and Pablo) while 1 guy or even a team of guys get to play as Deadites.

[Leo656]

That's a bummer, I just want a decent single-player action/survival horror game. This franchise has never had a truly good one, and it deserves one.

Some of the older ones were "playable", and I definitely had fun with a couple of them, but they're not like "great" or anything. Pretty far from great.

I know this online PvP sh*t is where the money is now, but it's frustrating to me personally because I would never, ever play that kind of game and I'd really love a good Evil Dead game, which I think could finally be done with technology where it is. Frankly I don't even think that kind of game fits this property at all, but obviously that's not what they're thinking about.

Ah well.

What's the point in calling this "Evil Dead - The game"? This is not the first Evil Dead Game.

Cause its everything Evil Dead in one game. This has characters from Evil Dead Evil Dead 2 dead by Dawn Army of Darkness and Ash Vs Evil Dead. Probably more characters will be announced later.

[Leo656]

It's also just how these things work. They did the same thing when the Ghostbusters game came out on Xbox 360 and PS3, despite the fact that there had been Ghostbusters games on multiple consoles going all the way back to the Commodore 64 era. They could just as well have given it a fancy subtitle but they settled on just calling it "Ghostbusters: The Video Game", even though it wasn't the first by any means.

These things happen.

Oh good. He was looking like the odd man out for some reason there.

First look at Kelly and Pablo

Just played Predator: Hunting Grounds, which is a lot like the F13 game (online only, people play as counselors as 1 person plays as Jason... in this case, people play as members of a fireteam and 1 person plays as a Predator)... if this is more like Hunting Grounds and less like the F13 game, I think it could be a moderate hoot. But I still hope there is something resembling a single player game in there.

So is this confirmation this will be an online-only multi-player game just like F13 and Predator: Hunting Grounds?

looks like it though it didn't say

[Andrew NDB]

So slight delay and they're adding single-player... sort of. Sounds like by the same virtue as you can play F13 The Game single player with bots. That isn't very fun and that doesn't, like, add a storyline or anything, though.

[Andrew NDB]

Just got it on PS5. It's definitely involved. Maybe a little bit too much? I played my first match and it was like an hour of rooting through houses with other players for pages of the map (which you need to get to unlock the dagger which enables you to defeat the bosses in each level)... and by the time we found them all it said game over, that we took too long.

Not sure if this will be great for "I want to hop in and do a quick 15-20 minute game."

Yeah, there's a solo mode in this.

*edit: And a fairly impressive solo mode. You can play the normal game with an AI demon or even this whole mode with little chapters, all solo, where you unlock characters. All very difficult, but fun.

[Andrew NDB]

I never thought playing as the Demon would be so much fun, but it is. I've gotten a bit better at it. I like to play as the "Necromancers" (meaning the bad guys from Army of Darkness). So many games now I follow around and troll the players as they move about getting pieces of the map... then as they get to the Dark Lords I start busting out "The Boss" (the armored Ash doppleganger from Army of Darkness) and pack after pack of armored giant skeletons on them and just decimate everybody and win.

Very satisfying.

The game's getting a battle royale mode....sort of....on the 2nd
