All-New Update for Evil Dead: The Game Arrives on Consoles & PC

Two new Survivors and a new Side Mission inspired by the Evil Dead 2013 film are available now

FORT LAUDERDALE, Fla. – Sept. 8, 2022 – Two new survivors have arrived to give you a fighting chance to live through the night in the latest update for Evil Dead: The Game, the co-op PvP|PvE multiplayer action experience on PlayStation®5, Xbox Series X|S, PlayStation®4, Xbox One and PC via the Epic Games Store. Available now, the Evil Dead 2013 Bundle DLC introduces new Survivor characters from the hit film: Mia and David Allen. The update also includes a free new single player side mission and two new weapons that Survivors can use to help fight evil – the Nail Gun and the Syringe.

A Machete weapon master able to become temporarily immune to possession, Mia’s unique power raises her damage as her fear increases – the more scared she is, the more damage she’ll deal. David, meanwhile, is a beacon of hope for the team, able to reduce fear and damage taken for himself and nearby allies as he dishes out the hurt. The DLC also includes an alternate Mia outfit and Mia ‘screamer’ image skin. The Evil Dead 2013 Bundle is free for Season Pass 1 owners and available to purchase standalone for $9.99. For more on everything included in this update, visit Evil Dead: The Game on Twitter and Facebook.

Inspired by the iconic horror, humor and action of the Evil Dead franchise, Evil Dead: The Game brings the series’ biggest names together in a pulse-pounding battle with the forces of darkness. Work as a team of four Survivors to kick Deadite butt and banish the vile Kandarian Demon – or become the Demon yourself, using its powers of possession to stop the good guys dead and swallow their souls! Choose your squad with fan-favorite characters from every era in the series, and battle with a wide variety of weapons to survive the night in multiplayer and bonus single-player missions.

Evil Dead: The Game is officially licensed by Boss Team Games from Renaissance Pictures, leading European production and distribution company STUDIOCANAL, leading entertainment company Metro Goldwyn Mayer (MGM), and global content leader Lionsgate (NYSE: LGF.A, LGF.B) to develop the first multi-platform console and PC game based on “The Evil Dead,” “Evil Dead II: Dead by Dawn,” and “Army of Darkness” films and the STARZ “Ash vs Evil Dead” television series.

World of Warships commemorates its seventh anniversary with a boatload of in-game collectibles and activities, updated Operations, and British battleships in the tech tree in a content-packed September update.

September 8^th – World of Warships, is celebrating its seventh anniversary this September! To mark the occasion, it is releasing a number of in-game festivities including new rewards for battle performance, a themed collection, and the Warship Strike mini game. This update also sees the continuation of the Puerto Rico build in the Dockyard, new updated Operations, British battleships sailing into the tech tree, and more.

Birthday on board

Leading the update is a boatload of in-game celebrations to commemorate seven years of World of Warships. Players using ships of Tier V and above will receive a number of festive rewards, with “Special Bonus”, “Rare Bonus” and “Supercontainer” containers up for grabs depending on the ship used. In seven years, many veteran players have hundreds of ships in port now, and they’ll be able to collect multiple rewards from several of their craft in one battle.

World of Warships will also welcome a new “Seven Seas” collection as part of the festivities, which takes players through the history of 16 of the game’s famous ports.

Wrapping up all these birthday festivities with a tidy bow is the relaxing Warship Strike mini game, inspired by a classic naval combat entertainment, available in the Armory. Players will be able to take on an AI opponent in a strategy-based game with the goal of winning festive tokens.

Updated Operations across the board

Operations have received thorough changes, with a wider set of ships available to participate. Rewards attained through Operations have also changed, with the opportunity to take home the new rewards more than once by completing special daily and weekly combat missions. Alongside these changes comes the return of three Operations, with “The Ultimate Frontier”, “Hermes” and the night operation “Cherry Blossom” back in 0.11.8.

British battleships make their way into the Tech Tree

Arriving from Early Access, eight British battleships introduced in the last two updates are now available for research in the Tech Tree. Amongst them are the iconic Renown and Indefatigable. Those swift ships feature accurate guns and torpedoes on board, as well as different consumables across the range of Tier V-X ships, including “Engine Boost”, “Defensive AA fire” and                       ” Specialized Repair Teams”.

Armory and Dockyard

The fast Tier X Spanish destroyer Álvaro de Bazán, accompanied by eight 135-mm main battery guns and two four-tube torpedo tubes, also makes its way into the Armory with its alternative firing mode.

Update 0.11.8 sees the continuation of the construction of American cruiser Puerto Rico, which will be available to players until the beginning of the update 0.11.10. The building process also rewards players who reach stage 25 out of 40 with Canadian destroyer Huron.
