Evil Dead Regeneration





THQ and Cranky Pants are working on an all-new Evil Dead experience, as Ash finds himself arrested, convicted of murder, and sentenced to Sunny Meadows, an institute for the criminally insane. Though better than the madness he escaped hidden within the woods, he quickly learns the evil has only become more malevolent.





Deep in the basement of an insane asylum, the mad Dr. Vingo combines technology with The Book of The Dead, AKA The Necronomicon to fulfill perverted experiments of his very own. Hell-bent on using science to harness the Necronomicon’s powers, the malevolent doctor unleashes the book’s all-powerful Evil on the world – creating a new breed of Deadites, monsters and experiments gone wrong, twisting reality into a hellish strudel and leaving mankind with that not-so-fresh apocalyptic feeling.



Cranky Pants are promising that Evil Dead Regeneration will feature some of the fiercest, action-packed, and punch-in-the-gut hilarious gameplay this side of biblical Armageddon.



This time around, Ash gas some help in the form of a half pint half-dead; a three-foot tall Deadite who’s part empath, part wiseass and all corpse. And he’s willing to use his flea-bitten carcass as anything, from a tiki torch to a bowling ball, to get his revenge. Ash would rather behead him then befriend him, but Ash is going to need all the help he can get against the army of monstrosities that lie in wait.





In addition to this, Evil Dead Regeneration goes heavy on the action with dual weapon combos and hordes of baddies to give you non-stop combat. Player will guide Ash and his sidekick as they battle evil, and interestingly enough, each other as well as killing anything dead that moves with everything from harpoon guns to flame throwers to the world famous chainsaw and shotgun combo special.



Evil Dead Regeneration is set for a September 2005 release on PC, PS2, X-Box and Wireless/Mobile.
