Game Informer - It’s no accident that Left 4 Dead and Evolve feature four-player teams. Turtle Rock explains why.

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.
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.

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

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."
Man I'm freaking excited for this game, I'm really liking the next gen attempts at being different, now of course in the past games like this have been made but come on now not to this extend. Now if they show a collectors edition I'll be all set!
I cannot wait to be the monster >:D
For games like L4D that require close co-operation, 4 is a perfect number. Any less and things would go straight downhill with as little as one bad player and any more and you'd face the danger of matches that aren't full often enough.
I'm actually really interested in this game. People shouldn't be dismissing as just another shooter. Read the GI article and you'll see why.
