Evil Dead: The Game's Digital Removal
Fans of the asymmetrical multiplayer horror game, Evil Dead: The Game, are facing an unexpected change. After a run of just over three years, the game is being pulled from digital storefronts across PC, PlayStation, and Xbox. This decision by publisher Saber Interactive has left many wondering about the future of this cult classic.
Why is the Game Disappearing?
While the official statement expresses gratitude to the player base, the reality is that the game hasn't quite achieved the expected player numbers. While updates and additional content were initially released, development slowed and a planned Nintendo Switch port was ultimately cancelled. The decision to remove the game from sale likely reflects a business decision based on its ongoing performance.
Good News for Existing Players
The good news for those who already own Evil Dead: The Game is that the online servers will remain active. This means players can continue to enjoy the game's unique blend of horror and multiplayer mayhem. The game's dedicated fans can still battle as Ash Williams or unleash the Deadite hordes against their friends.
Despite its departure from digital marketplaces, Evil Dead: The Game leaves behind a legacy as a fun and chaotic multiplayer experience. Its unique take on the Evil Dead franchise provided a thrilling gameplay experience for many.
