Evil Dead: The Game pits a group of player Survivors against the relentless forces of evil and a player-controlled Kandarian Demon that attempts to wipe them out. Using the right Survivor and their abilities for a task is key, as is working with your team. Let’s take a look at all four Survivor classes along with their skills and abilities.
First is the Leader, capable of buffing the group’s stats while being less susceptible to Fear and possession. Here are all of the different Leader Survivors:
- Annie Knowby
- Lord Arthur
- Ash Williams (Ash vs Evil Dead)
The next Survivor class is the Warrior, your main damage dealer. However, at least two have good tanking and survival skills. The three Warrior Survivors in question are:
- Ash Williams (Army of Darkness)
- Scotty
- Henry the Red
The third class is the Hunter, your de facto ranged specialist. In addition to dealing more ranged damage than other Survivors, they’re better at stamina management and can hold more ammo. The Hunter Survivors in question are:
- Ash Williams (Evil Dead 2)
- Ed Getley
- Kelly Maxwell
- Amanda Fisher
Finally, there’s the Support class, which focuses on healing others, marking targets with headshots, creating amulets, staring with a Shemp’s Cola and more. The three Support Survivors include:
- Ash Williams (The Evil Dead)
- Cheryl Williams
- Pablo Simon Bolivar
Next, let’s take a look at the evil side of the playable characters – the Kandarian Demons, with one playable at a time in a match. These are opposed to the Survivors and looking to disrupt them at every turn.
The three Kandarian Demon classes each consist of a Basic Unit, Elite Unit and Boss, which unlock at level 3, level 5 and level 10 respectively. Each has unique abilities, strengths and weaknesses depending on your play style.
The different Kandarian Demon classes and their units are:
- Necromancer – Skeleton (Basic Unit), Armored Skeleton (Elite Unit), Evil Ash (Boss)
- Puppeteer – Deadite Berserker (Basic Unit), Demi-Eligos (Elite Unit), Eligos (Boss)
- Warlord – Deadite (Basic Unit), Deadite Elite (Elite Unit), Henrietta
