The only challenge is how efficiently you can corner your victims. You chase down the humans with a variety of bespoke murderers and throw their battered carcasses onto meathooks before hunting down more fresh blood. The difference is that Dead By Daylight takes the form of a simple, slasher manhunt-more Jason than Freddy. Meanwhile, the maleficent player is going to be stockpiling experience points and outfitting a talent build in order to melt through those defenses. Survivors will spend a lot of time looting, because brandishing extra ammunition, weapons, and health potions insulates them from the onslaught. If you are a DBD veteran then you'll already be aware of the core rhythms here. The dungeon master tries to incapacitate the party before that can be accomplished.Īll of this culminates in one final endgame sequence where, if the demon player has yet to vanquish the protagonists, they'll have one hectic chance to destroy the excavated Necronomicon before they're banished back to the underworld.

The good guys need to traverse a haunted forest and find a series of artifacts to rout the forces of evil within a 30 minute time limit. Four players are cast as survivors-all spun off from the boomstick-brandishing zombie slayers from the films-and a fifth takes control of an unseen demon who zooms around the map, opening portals to hell, in hopes of extinguishing all living things. Saber Interactive, the studio behind Evil Dead, clearly cribbed from Dead By Daylight for its chief inspiration. The game is absolutely exhilarating-one of the true left-field sleepers of 2022-and I'm eagerly letting it swallow my soul. What I did not expect was for Evil Dead to be the best multiplayer horror experience since at least Dead By Daylight. Evil Dead is a stone cold low-culture classic, and given how brutally its contemporaries have been treated by the games business ( Ghostbusters, Rambo, The Sopranos), I girded myself for another slapdash gouging. B-movie franchises have traditionally been fresh meat for enterprising publishers and developers looking to turn a quick buck, which is to say that I did not shamble towards Ash's latest adventure with high expectations. The idea of an "Evil Dead videogame" has a distinctly mid-2000s tang. Multiplayer? Four survivors against one killer
