Evolve is now slated to be released on February 10, 2015, but a new announcement from 2K International today, coupled with a trailer will have gamers champing at the bit for this hotly anticipated title.
Launching this Halloween, October 31, gamers on Xbox One, PlayStation 4 and PC gamers will have the opportunity to play Evolve during the Evolve Big Alpha event. Xbox One gamers only will be offered exclusive early access to The Big Alpha on October 30th.
The teaser trailer below, helmed by 2K marketing exec Nik Karlsson is 100 percent multiplayer gameplay choreographed, captured and edited in collaboration with Ayzenberg.
“The Evolve game will feature a variety of maps, one of which being a large jungle, with some industrial elements where players can take shelter. There are various power ups that can be taken by both hunters and monster players through killing the local wildlife,” said 2K International in a press release.
“Victory is achieved for the hunters by killing the monster, while the monster can either kill the four hunters, or complete a secondary objective such as destroying a human base or power plant. The hunters are made up of four classes: a trapper, a support, a medic, and an assault class. Each class will contain a variety of different hunters with different play-styles.”
In Evolve, 4 players play against a player-controlled monster, giving gamers a different perspective to choose from.
