Evil Dead: The Game and Dark Deity are the next Epic Games Store freebies

Groovy

Digital retailer Epic Games Store has revealed the two new titles that it will be offering up to all of its users free-of-charge next week — And this time around, it’s something particularly special, as 2022’s asynchronous multiplayer title Evil Dead: The Game will be available gratis, in all of its gory glory.

Launching earlier this year on PC and consoles, Evil Dead: The Game is an authentic and particularly frantic adaptation of the iconic horror film series — famously starring Bruce Campbell as the chainsaw-revving doofus/rogue Ash Williams. Evil Dead: The Game sees players team up as recognizable characters from the entire series, before doing battle against a single player with an army of Deadites, traps, and other sneaky tricks up their Kandarian sleeves.

While the multiplayer element of the title obviously means that Evil Dead: The Game has a very specific audience, the developers at Boss Team Games did a magnificent job in recreating the aesthetic and creepy, oppressive nature of the franchise, with a fantastic audio/visual package that series fans will love. It also plays very well as an asynchronous multiplayer experience, and hopefully, this EGS freebie will help to widen the game’s audience a little more, encouraging Ash and friends to remain on their decap attack well into the new year.

Developed by indie outfit Sword & Axe LLC and released in the summer of 2021, Dark Deity is a strategy-based RPG set against the backdrop of a war-torn fantasy world. Taking influence from Nintendo’s highly acclaimed Fire Emblem series, Dark Deity follows the escapades of a cast of military academy students — thrust into battle prematurely after their king ill-advisedly declares war on a neighboring state. The story follows four such students as they join a battle that has farther-reaching consequences than they had ever imagined.

Evil Dead: The Game and Dark Deity can be downloaded from the Epic Games Store from November 17. Until then, users can still bag themselves current freebies Alba: A Wildlife Adventure and Shadow Tactics: Blades of the Shogun
