Evil Dead: The Game sells 500,000 units in under a week – perfect timing for Embracer Group

Evil Dead: The Game may have had something of a quiet launch as far as marketing and buzz go, but the game has already been a success; per a new tweet from the owner of the game IP, Embracer Group, the game has sold through 500,000 units in just five days.

It helps, of course, that the game is multiplatform and cross-play – being an asymmetric multiplayer title, the deck would be stacked against you if you were limiting your player pool to just one platform, right? So these sales count for every version of the game sold since its fitting release date of Friday 13, May across PC, PS5, PS4, Xbox Series X/S, Xbox One, and Nintendo Switch.

Given the strong start the game has enjoyed, then, it makes sense that the developer has announced a fairly comprehensive Evil Dead DLC roadmap, which includes a new map heavily based on Castle Kandar from Army of Darkness, coming later this summer.
