As Campbell explains in the clip, the multiplayer game will team up players to take on the evil forces of the Deadites, which will also be player-controlled. The gameplay footage also shows Ash and some of the other Evil Dead franchise heroes, like Kelly Maxwell and Pablo, creating a bloody mess with the war against the Deadites.
Recently, it was announced that Ash’s sister Cheryl, who was featured in The Evil Dead and returned in Ash vs. Evil Dead, will be included as a playable character. Dana DeLorenzo and Ray Santiago have both confirmed they’ll be voicing Kelly and Pablo, alongside Ash as Campbell. There will be other characters from the various films and the TV series to be included, so we’re expecting more surprises coming soon.
