It's not quite battle royale--it's splatter royale.
As of its last update, multiplayer horror game Evil Dead has a new mode that's not quite battle royale, but instead is being called"Splatter Royale". Up to 40 players fight to be the last deadite standing, choosing from uglied-up deadite versions of the game's existing Survivor and Demon characters.
As well as scavenging for loot it can be earned through special events, some of which demand you take on elite or boss NPCs. At the end of each round you advance up Splatter Royale's four skill trees, which let you get better at being an Assassin, Butcher, Commando, or Marksman. The same update also adds two new weapons. The grenade launcher does pretty much what you'd expect, i.e. it launches grenades that explode, while the scythe looks like a particularly brutal limb-lopper that can sever legs and heads., adding a new Survivor named Ruby Knowby. She's based on the character from Ash vs Evil Dead played by Lucy Lawless, who returns to voice Ruby in-game.
