Evil Dead: The Game Delisted From Digital Stores After Three Years

Saber Interactive confirms the removal of the game from all platforms but pledges to keep servers online for existing players.

Overview

  • Evil Dead: The Game, released in May 2022, has been fully removed from digital storefronts, including Steam, PlayStation Store, and Epic Games Store.
  • Saber Interactive has assured players that online servers will remain operational for those who already own the game, though no timeline for server shutdown has been provided.
  • Speculation suggests the delisting may be tied to an expired licensing agreement with co-publisher Boss Team Games, though no official reason has been given.
  • The game ceased receiving new content updates in September 2023, and a planned Nintendo Switch version was canceled at that time.
  • This delisting highlights ongoing challenges for preserving licensed, online-only games, with parallels drawn to similar cases like Friday the 13th: The Game.
