    Game ruined by devs who pandered to Survivor players so now no one plays the demon. This means wait times are in XS of 15mins. Well done whingers, instead of getting good, you had Saber lower the bar for you and now no one can have fun. Shame on Saber for pandering to them and not sticking to their guns when they did actually get it right.

    I love Ash but that stupid camera position ruins the game. Put the character in the center!!!!!

    This game is so clearly unbalanced, repitious, and flat-out boring, yet these fanboys still think it constitutes a near-perfect score. It needs a lot of patches and updates before it even comes close to receiving a score in the green.

    Just what we didn't need. Another asymmetrical multiplayer game. Zzzzzzzzzzz. Completely wasted opportunity for a new single player game in the Evil Dead franchise. Yes, this has a single player mode but the main focus is multiplayer. It should have been the other way around with the main focus being a single player campaign.

    Yep another one..same old sh*t. Essentially it's just Dead By Daylight with an Evil Dead coat of paint. Gets boring quickly, very repetitive with little to actually do. And the so called single player experience is a complete joke. If this had been made into a single player story based game it could have been amazing, instead we get another generic online multiplayer that will be dead in aYep another one..same old sh*t.

    I give this a one because I like the graphics, as for the rest of the game.... :( it's TERRIBLE! I have tried all the modes online and off and to me this game is useless! A lot of people say they lave it, but then say they are hoping for fixes and add-ons (what, are you still waiting for them to fix Friday the 13th as well?)!

    Maybe if you like Hard games like Demon Souls, you'll like this? Maybe?

    This game is cashgrab and pay to win! Servers are bad, new updates are only for money and adds only pay to win characters and demon!

    Despite presenting a number of interesting ideas, Evil Dead: The Game is an experience that quickly becomes monotonous. Not even Bruce Campbell's charisma can exorcise this game of his problems.

    Evil Dead: The Game is a homage to 80s horror and Sam Raimi. It captures the franchise perfectly and you'll grimace and chuckle as the action unfolds. It is excellent as a multiplayer experience. However, solo gamers will find it unfairly harsh and this will frustrate you.

    If you’re a fan of Evil Dead, this game is meant for you. It’s easy to see that the developers are fans of the series as well. Even if you’re not a fan, this game is still a lot of fun. It is one the most balanced asymmetrical game that has released yet. There were a few problems with melee canceling when the game first released, but that exploit has already been addressed in one of the recent patches, so it goes to show that the developers care about balance. The game also has cross-play! If the game can maintain some good download content in the future, this game will be one to talk about and play for the months to come. Just from the start, this game already has “JOIN US” wrote all over it... and if you get that reference, you will enjoy this game the most!
