Evil Dead: The Game has a lot of characters of different classes with unique abilities for players to choose from to fight off the onslaught of demons.
With each class, players will gain unique skills that change the way the game is approached through a multitude of abilities and upgrades. In this article, let’s find out the list of survivor characters and their abilities in Evil Dead: The Game.
Evil Dead: The Game Survivor Class Abilities
As for the survivor role, there are a total of 4 classes: Leader, Warrior, Hunter and Support. Each class features a variety of playable characters, from Cheryl Williams to Henry the Red, each with their own special active and passive abilities.

However, some of these characters will need to be unlocked by completing quests, so players will need to spend some time in the game if they want to own Amanda or Pablo Simon Bolivar.
Characters in the Leader class
Leader class characters Annie Knowby, Lord Arthur and Ash Williams (Ash vs Evil Dead) take familiar buff elements from RPG and MMO games, which can increase their own stats and those around them.

On top of that, they’re also slightly more resistant to fear than others, meaning that their chances of being possessed by a Kandarian Demon are somewhat reduced.
