Press release:
Denver, CO – October 11th, 2022.
The US-based indie games publisher Versus Evil and Germany-based indie games developer VestGames, are today very thrilled and delighted to announce that their multiplayer social deduction game “Eville”, is now available for PC (via Steam, The Humble Store, VersusEvil.com, and other PC retailers) and Xbox (Xbox Series X/S, and the Xbox One) via Xbox Game Pass. A 10% launch discount for Xbox and PC will be available for one week.

Complementing the popular social deduction genre with its own blend of murderous intent, deceit and manipulation, Eville casts players into randomly assigned roles with unique abilities, skills and advantages as they look to either commit their dastardly deed or avoid becoming the Conspirators’ next victim.

Everyone has a role to play, be that a Smuggler, Thief, Trapper, Detective or even a Barbarian or Slanderer, it all makes for a colorful mix of possible characters to play, each of which have their own distinct traits and abilities.

Eville is a multiplayer game where intrigue and collaboration go hand in hand and where cunning strategies can be played out. Players can complete quests during the day and set hidden traps to defend themselves during the night hours when they are most vulnerable, its all part of the murky goings on and the murder and mischief that has befallen the once peaceful village of Eville.

Depending on a player’s alignment of Villager or Conspirator, they’ll collectively look to either get to the bottom of the nefarious shenanigans to uncover the real perpetrators, or they’ll need to employ deception to throw everyone else off the scent if they are indeed the culprit.

Players can utilize their character’s abilities and social skills to discover who bumped off their friends, and with Eville’s crafting opportunities, the brewing of weird and wonderful potions can be used to either save others… or poison them. This is a village where even those who have crossed over to the afterlife aren’t silenced forever and where some even talk to the ghosts of the dead!

“Eville launches across Xbox and PC today, further establishing Versus Evil’s love of the social deduction genre,” said Steve Escalante, General Manager of Versus Evil.

“VestGames has developed a competitive addition to the space where fans of the Town of Salem, Werewolf and Mafia will certainly appreciate. Friends across PC and Xbox can collaborate or compete in Eville with a host of unique characters, roles and objectives. Have fun!”
