Evil Dead hero Ash is back as gaming company THQ today said they were releasing the latest chapter in the Evil Dead saga. Known as Evil Dead Regeneration, the game is shipping now for the Playstation 2 and is expected to ship later this month for Windows PCs.
Evil Dead Regeneration will feature the voice of Bruce Campbell in the role of Ash and Ted Raimi as a deadite dwarf sidekick. The plotline as mentioned in the press release reads:
“Evil Dead Regeneration follows Ash, the lone survivor of a camp discovering the Necronomicon — the wholly evil book of the dead. Thought to have murdered his companions, Ash is arrested, convicted of the crime, and sentenced to Sunny Meadows, an institute for the criminally insane, but not for long. Ash’s peaceful stay is about to end — thanks to the perverted experiments of his very own psychiatrist. Hell-bent on using science to harness the Necronomicon’s powers, the mad doctor unleashes the book’s all-powerful Evil on the world — releasing a new slew of Deadites, monsters and spirits, twisting reality into a hellish strudel and leaving mankind with that not-so-fresh, apocalyptic feeling.”
The game is being described by THQ studio Cranky Pants Games as an all-new Evil Dead adventure.
