Now this is something to get excited for. After unleashing a variety of killers (and "survivors" for them to murder), like Krueger, Leatherface, Jason and more, we're now getting Ash from the Evil Dead, or as you youngsters might know him from, Ash Vs. Evil Dead, a Starz series that ran from 2015 to 2018. If you haven't seen the show, check it out, it's pretty badass and plus, it has Xena: Warrior Princess in it. And she's still hot. How the hell is that even possible?
Bruce Campbell (Ash) is the star of the trailer below, which is more of a ham-fisted attempt at humor than an actual trailer, but it's still slightly comical and does show off a little gameplay. We already know that his survivor perks are Flip-Flop, Buckle Up, and Mettle of Man, and although we aren't exactly sure what those will entail, you can bet your ass that one or more will involve a sawed off shotgun (Boomstick) and a prosthetic hand.
This isn't the first time that Bruce Campbell's alter ego has appeared in games. The first time was in Hail to the King released in 2000 on PlayStation/Dreamcast/Windows, while the second , A Fistful of Boomstick released in 2003 on Xbox/PlayStation 2 and the third, Evil Dead: Regeneration, was released in 2005 on Xbox/PlayStation 2/Windows. He also appears in a slew of cameos not based on the Evil Dead property.
Ash arrives on Dead by Daylight April 2nd, and you can play the title on PS4, PC and Xbox One with a Switch version in the works to be released sometime this year.
