Evolve is an asymmetrical multiplayer shooter where four hunters compete against a monster on various maps. The twist of the game is that both the hunters and the monster are controlled by players.
The hunter team always consists of four classes (Trapper, Support, Medic, and Assault) and each class currently has two different characters, allowing some adjustment of playstyle.
In contrast, the monster only has two races (Goliath and Kraken), which differ significantly in their gameplay. However, they share the ability to level up by hunting other wildlife. While the monster is very weak in Phase 1 and best avoids the hunters, the situation changes in Phase 2 where both parties are approximately equal in strength. Once the monster reaches Phase 3, it is significantly stronger and tougher than the hunters and can even attack the Power Relays, whose destruction also leads to victory.
The game, developed by Turtle Rock Studios, is currently still in alpha, but it is scheduled to be released on February 10, 2015, for PS4, Xbox One, and PC.
