Examiner: "As we saw at PAX East, the levels of Turtle Rock Studios' Evolve are huge, and appropriately so. Even with the stark contrast of sizes between the monster and the hunters, 2K Games is confident that traversing the landscapes will be a fun experience."
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."
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.
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.
Cool, 2K
I am really hoping this game feels fresh compared to other shooters because of the evolving creature element, I really cant wait till I get to try this out and have a strong feeling I will be playing as the monster as much as possible.
I hope this is as great co op as Left 4 Dead, if so me and my buddy's will have an absolute blast.
I sense all-nighters incoming.
Wonder how it will compare to natural selection 2. That game is pretty dang awesome. Haha, especially when the aliens are messing with you. Hide in corner, cry.
I cannot wait to get this game, been keeping an eye out and telling my friends about it!
