At Evolve, the 5th Medic is coming soon – a robot with a personality disorder that can revive all dead hunters!
The humans are dead, send more robots!
The 4v1 shooter Evolve’s second season pass is currently on its final stretch. Turtle Rock Studios has now released a new trailer and simultaneously provided information in the forum about the abilities of the 5th Medic who will be deployed on the planet Shear.
E.M.E.T. will be the second robot to join the suicidal team of hunters. Like all other hunters, this tin can has quite a few screws loose and likely carries two personalities in its programming – see for yourself:
His abilities will likely get under the monsters’ skin in advance, as he could easily rival his colleague Lazarus. Let’s take a look at his arsenal:
- The Replay Cannon fires a marking arrow at the target. Subsequently, E.M.E.T. fires several rockets that follow the path of the marking arrow and cause moderate damage.
The Respawn Beacon is particularly powerful. It can only be activated once a hunter has died. If the beacon remains for 30 seconds, all fallen hunters will respawn at it. The beacon can only be placed if the next landing ship takes longer than 30 seconds.
In summary, E.M.E.T. looks like a very solid character who will turn the tide of many battles, especially with his beacon. In combination with Bucket, players can certainly expect many silly dialogues. Owners of Season Pass 2 (or the “Monster Race Edition”) can jump into battle with the bleach bucket starting December 16.
Weekend Challenge for Slim
While we are already on the topic of Medic: This week, Evolve is again hosting a Weekend Challenge, focused on the Medic Slim. The goal is clearly defined: the community must accumulate a total of 6500 victories with Slim over the weekend to secure his “Union Jack” skin. It doesn’t matter whether you play as Slim yourself or another character, as long as the mentioned medic is in your game. The game mode is also irrelevant, so a few quick matches in the arena can benefit the entire community.
If the players reach the goal, the skin will be available at the latest by December 17 for all participating accounts.
