'Evolve' (ALL) Season 2 Adds New Hunter - Screens & Trailer

by Rainier on June 24, 2015 @ 8:50 a.m. PDT

Evolve is a multiplayer shooter that 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.

Play as the Monster to use savage abilities and an animalistic sense to kill your human enemies, or choose one of four Hunter classes (Trapper, Support, Assault and Medic) and team up to take down the beast on the planet Shear, where flora and fauna act as an adversary to Hunter and Monster alike. Evolve includes three Monsters, 12 Hunters, 16 maps, and four game modes: Hunt, Nest, Rescue, and Defend.


Lennox is available individually or as part of Hunting Season 2, which will include three more Hunter characters and one Monster character in the coming year.

Lennox is the first Hunter in Evolve to feature a melee attack. Her ‘Thunderchild’ mechanized suit is equipped with a Plasma Lance that deals massive amounts of damage in close combat, while her Autocannon and Thunder Strike attack allow Lennox to fight when outside of melee range.

Evolve Hunting Season 2 is currently available for purchase for $24.99 (MSRP) for Xbox One, PS4, and PC. Those who purchase the new Monster and Hunters as part of Hunting Season 2 will also receive an additional exclusive skin with the launch of each of the five new included playable characters.

“The new Monster and Hunters coming to Evolve in Hunting Season 2 are some of the most unique characters our team has created,” said Chris Ashton, co-founder and design director at Turtle Rock Studios. “Each of these characters introduces combat mechanics that are brand new to the Evolve gameplay experience.”

Beginning today, the price of all downloadable content characters in Evolve has been reduced:

  • All Monster characters are now $9.99 (MSRP) each and all Hunter characters are now $4.99 (MSRP) each;
  • The previously released Hunting Season 1 can now be purchased for $14.99 (MSRP). Evolve Hunting Season 1, which features four Hunters (Torvald, Crow, Slim and Sunny) and three Monster character skins (Magma Goliath, Magma Kraken and Magma Wraith), now includes four new exclusive ‘Arctic’ skins, one for each of the included Hunters;
  • Everyone who previously purchased Hunting Season 1, Evolve Digital Deluxe Edition or Evolve PC Monster Race Edition, will also receive these four new ‘Arctic’ skins;
  • All purchasers of the Evolve PC Monster Race Edition will receive all content featured in Hunting Season 2.
