Bruce Campbell Promises 80% Satisfaction From EVIL DEAD: THE GAME

Following this year’s TGAs, Geoff Keighley did a brief Q&A with Saber Interactive’s CCO, Tim Willits, and horror-legend Bruce Campbell about their upcoming project, Evil Dead: The Game. In the interview, Campbell gives a lot of insight into what makes this game better than previous ones set in the series and what players can expect in terms of fan service.

For instance, there are four playable versions of Ash, each having their own class and ability sets. Campbell says he even had to change his performance depending on which version he was recording for to make it as faithful as possible! Having many of the actual actors who portrayed the characters on-screen return for their characters in-game was another major part of making the game true to the franchise, so that’s exactly what they did!

Capping off the Q&A, Campbell points out that no matter how great they make the game, they understand that there are always going to be differing opinions on how things are done and that they’re expecting fans to be about 80%-82% satisfied with the final product. What really felt great about it though is that he said fans will know that they care about them and factor them in when it comes to creating the game.

The full Q&A is truly worth a watch.

Evil Dead: The Game will release in February 2022 for PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X/S, Nintendo Switch, and PC.
