To the Evil Dead: The Game community,

Today, we have made the decision not to pursue the development of new content for Evil Dead: The Game. We also confirm that we will not be releasing a Nintendo Switch version of the game.

We will keep the servers up for hte foreseeable future and address any major issues that arise.

On behalf of the entire team at Saber, thank you for all the groovy times and your continued support.

a bit unfortunate, i thought the concept of having a more action focused 4v1 survival horror game seemed fairly interesting.

Definitely not groovy.

Not surprised at all. I was super excited when the game was announced because I didn't notice the horror multiplayer game boom and therefore wasn't aware it was just copying the popular things. Now it's obvious that everyone's trying to chase the same thing kinda like with battle royale a few years before. We've got Texas Chainsaw Massacre, Killer Clowns, and probably something else I'm forgetting. But those games are all based on one, sometimes very nice property so OF COURSE they're not gonna make a splash something like Dead by Daylight (is that the crossover horror game?) made.

Friday the 13th at least had the advantage of releasing early in the boom, but it was tripped up by the IP rights becoming a quagmire.
