Evil Dead The Game - All survivors, skills and stats

With Evil Dead: The Games release, fans are in for a bloody and grueling ride in the newest rendition of Sam Raimi's comedy-horror franchise Evil Dead. The game features two opposing factions, Survivors who need to complete tasks to win the round, and Demons whose only task is to eliminate all the Survivors before they do so.

For players looking to take on the role of Survivors, you have four main class options available to you, and with each class having varying abilities and stats, it may be difficult to choose who you want to play as. Luckily, today we aim to give you some insight when making that decision, as we take a look at all the Survivors and their respective skills and stats so you can make the best decision for your preferred playstyle and take down the forces of evil.
