Evolve: Neue Maps, Jäger, neuer Spielmodus und viele Fixes! Patch 2.0 zu Evolve ist da

Monsterjäger und -fans aufgepasst: Entwickler Turtle Rock Studios gibt bekannt, dass ab sofort ein neues Update zu Evolve zum Download bereit steht. Die bisher umfangreichste Aktualisierung bringt den Coop-Shooter auf die Version 2.0 und liefert zahlreiche Verbesserungen und neue Features.



Neben Plattform-spezifischen Fixes haben die Entwickler auch erneut Feintuning am Balancing betrieben, was dafür sorgen soll, dass Evolve noch ausgeglichenere Matches bietet.

Zusätzlich gibt es ab sofort vier neue Jäger, die Teil des Season Pass zu Evolve sind, sowie ein neuer Spielmodus mit Namen "Observer", der es einem sechsten Spieler ermöglicht, als Zuschauer an den Matches teilzunehmen.

Xbox One Spieler können sich zudem über zwei neue zeitexklusive Maps freuen, die ab dem 30. April für PS4- und PC-Spieler zugänglich sind.
