Description

Evolve was supposed to be one of the biggest multiplayer games of 2015. So what the hell happened? Created by the team behind Left 4 Dead, Evolve had an incredible premise: four hunters versus one giant monster in a completely asymmetric battle. The concept was fresh, ambitious, and genuinely fun. But before the game even launched, something started going very wrong. So how did a game with one of the most interesting multiplayer concepts of its generation go from enormous hype to completely disappearing? #evolve #videogames #evolvegame
