What you need to know
- Evil Dead: The Game is receiving its first major content update since launch.
- The “Army of Darkness” update brings new weapons, the Castle Kandar map, Exploration mode, and more.
- Outside of some paid cosmetic items, these additions are free for all players.
In addition to providing new areas to destroy Deadites in, the Army of Darkness update also introduces a pair of terrifying tools of destruction. The Mace is a powerhouse close-range weapon perfect for players who prefer more intimate combat, and the Explosive Crossbow offers catastrophic ranged damage. These welcomed weapons should help spice up showdowns against the hordes of Kandarian forces.
While the Castle Kandar map, Exploration mode, and the Mace and Explosive Crossbow are free for all players, this update also features shiny paid cosmetics. The Ash S-Mart Employee Outfit and Gallant Knight Outfit can be purchased for $2.99 each. For Season Pass 1 owners, the Medieval Bundle will be included at no additional charge. Still, anyone can scoop up new outfits for Henry the Red, Lord Arthur, and Evil Ash as an optional purchase for $7.99.
