Joystiq: This trailer for Evolve introduces each of the game's four hunters in video form, showing their unique abilities in action as they team up to take beasts down. Turtle Rock Studios' four-versus-one shooter will launch October 21 for PC, Xbox One and PS4.
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."
Evolve is an asymmetrical multiplayer experience born at the tail-end of the wrong era, in the multiplayer world.
Great idea but poorly executed and destined to fail from the begging. Only thing I’m grateful towards this game is that it’s the one that convinced me to never buy a game blind again.
Shadowrun for the Xbox 360/PC would of been a better example of a great online game that launched At the wrong time.
Looks fun
The more I see the more I like
does this game only have one game mode? if it does i really hope it doesn't have a 60 dollar tag
This game could be fun but with friends and even so i can see problems because this is a team base game regarding the hunters and since all of them are so differente and have very specific roles im pretty sure that only one or two characters will be fun to play with and them no one wants to play with the others and this by norm tends to break the game in my view,this is not a 6vs6 32vs32 its four against one do you want to play with the bad ass guy or with the one that needs to hide and cure the remaining.A good game for people that have a clan for online play but for the rest...not so sure.
Maggie? Simpsons copyright. Pre-order cancelled.
Sarcasm aside, Hyde looks awesome. Fits my play style more. Maggie and Lazurus seem more tactical. Of course I'm only 2 minutes in, so expect an edit.
Edit: What's the premise. Are the monsters threatening humanity, or are the hunters just scaredy cats like the D.U.P hunting down the scary monsters? Hopefully it's the first one.
