What Is Evolve?

Game Informer - Yesterday we revealed February's cover story, a new IP from the creators of Left 4 Dead called Evolve. With this first feature for the month, we wanted to explain why Evolve is much more than just "Left 4 Aliens." While visiting Turtle Rock Studios we spoke with studio heads Phil Robb and Chris Ashton about the concept of their new game. The video below covers how Evolve is different than Left 4 Dead, how it compares to Monster Hunter, and whether or not you can play single-player. To learn much more about Evolve, check out the latest issue of Game Informer for the full cover story.

I'm pretty skeptical not gonna lie doesn't sound like a game I would shell out 60$ for

I mean this sounds awesome. I love scfi and I dig the unique gameplay for a shooter. I didn't love left 4 dead though. Want to see some gameplay videos. Could be great if done right.

couldn't agree more, in theory this sounds amazing. It depends if they can execute the idea.

Report: Evolve 2 Was Once in Development, Concept Art Reveals Scrapped Sequel

It has been recently revealed by an artist that a sequel to the 2015 title Evolve was in the works. However, this project wouldn't last long.

Didn’t bother with the first one.

TheColbertinator266d ago

All I wanted was Left 4 Dead 3 instead

Abnor_Mal266d ago

Was this game ahead of its time? A few years later games like Dead By Daylight, Friday the 13th and other asymmetrical games exploded onto the scene.

MeteorPanda266d ago

if lm not mistaken it started the asymmetrical pvp matches. Evolves logo was a nod to their concept.

They should have because I played the first one when it was already dead

Evolve or Die: The final days of the follow-up to Left 4 Dead

Back in 2016, Turtle Rock announced that support for its 4v1 monster-hunting shooter Evolve would end but fans wouldn't let it die.

‘Evolve: Stage 2’ is back from the dead as peer-to-peer servers come back online

From NME: "Evolve: Stage 2 had its multiplayer servers shut down back in 2018, but today players are once again able to matchmake and join peer-to-peer multiplayer games.

Several months ago, peer-to-peer functionality was lost for Evolve Legacy, which was the only way fans of the series could play with friends. Upon a multitude of players reaching out to publisher 2K, the issue was eventually fixed earlier in July. It seems 2K have gone a step further now, and reinstated peer-to-peer and matchmaking functionality for Evolve: Stage 2 after four years."

^^this, I have so many awesome skins on Xbox that I’d rather not lose

Germaximus1355d ago

Yes so far because it's just the servers alone coming on and the console version never had the free-to-play update.

I imagine if they find people playing the PC version and enough players are enjoying it then they'd probably reconsider opening console as well but I wouldn't count on it.

The game was epic as a monster. Hunters were really boring to play as to me.

LordoftheCritics1355d ago

I used to play this a bit.

Was kinda fun.
