Evil Dead: The Game Pre-Order Bonuses Include 2 Classic Costumes

February 8, 2022

After being delayed a couple of months earlier this year, the Evil Dead video game is now officially available for pre-order ahead of its May 13, 2022 release for the PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X|S, Nintendo Switch, and PC.

To entice those to pre-order the title, fans who pre-order will receive two bonus Ash Williams costumes that see him in his S-Mart getup and an outfit complete with Knight armor, both of which are from the film Army of Darkness.

Evil Dead: The Game has been in the news often this year, as developer Saber Interactive announced in January that the game — initially planned to release in February — would instead be moving to a May release.

“When we set out to create a brand new game worthy of the Evil Dead franchise, we knew it had to be groovy as hell,” read the announcement, noting that the delay gave the team time to “get things just right” ahead of its launch.

The asymmetrical horror game was first announced at The Game Awards in 2020. The first bits of gameplay debuted at Summer Game Fest in June 2021, showing some of classic characters from the films as well as the fan-favorite television series, Ash vs. Evil Dead.
