2K Games officially announces
Evolve, the
recently revealed multiplayer
shooter from
Left 4 Dead creators Turtle Rock Studios, saying this is
coming to Windows, Xbox One, and PlayStation 4 this autumn. They are already
accepting preorders on the
Evolve
website, and those who commit in advance will receive the Monster expansion
pack, "which includes the Savage Goliath skin at launch and a new monster
character as soon as it becomes available after Evolve is released." Here's
word:
2K and Turtle Rock Studios, creators of the cooperative shooter
classic Left 4 Dead, today officially announced Evolve™, an all-new multiplayer
shooter experience. Evolve will be available this autumn for Xbox One, the
all-in-one games and entertainment system from Microsoft, PlayStation®4 computer
entertainment system, and Windows PC.
Evolve expertly blends cooperative and competitive multiplayer experiences as a
team of four hunters face off against a single, player-controlled monster. Set
on an alien planet in the distant future, gamers hunt their prey in
adrenaline-pumping 4V1 matches. Players experience Evolve as a first-person
shooter when playing cooperatively as the four hunters, while they control the
monster in the third-person perspective, providing a gameplay experience unique
to Evolve.
“Our philosophy is to build incredibly fun game experiences that we can’t find
anywhere else,” said Chris Ashton, co-founder and design director at Turtle Rock
Studios. “Evolve’s co-op vs. lone wolf formula has created some of the most
intense multiplayer matches we’ve ever experienced.”
“Evolve will be a generation-defining multiplayer experience,” said Christoph
Hartmann, president of 2K. “As our first new IP for next-gen systems, 2K is
working with Turtle Rock Studios to deliver a game that’s instantly entertaining
and impossible to put down.”
Evolve is available for pre-order beginning today at participating retailers.
Those who pre-order the game from participating retailers will be rewarded with
the Monster Expansion Pack, which includes the Savage Goliath skin at launch and
a new monster character as soon as it becomes available after Evolve is
released. To see a list of retailers that you can pre-order Evolve from now,
