New shooter Evolve announced

Turtle Rock Studios, after working on Valve's Counter-Strike series, and creating Left 4 Dead, are announcing their new next-gen only IP: Evolve.

The game is backed by publisher 2K Games, which paid $10.8 million for the IP in last year's THQ auction.

Game Informer says this sci-fi multiplayer-focused shooter pits a four-player crew of alien hunters against a separate player-controlled monster that grows larger and more powerful over the course of matches. Each hunter features its own unique items and abilities, and while the monster may be outnumbered, its size and an assortment of devastating attacks make it a more than formidable foe.

Evolve plans to release on PC, Xbox One, and PlayStation 4 this fall.
