There’s a lot more to Evolve than just the hunt. In fact, up until right now that’s all we’ve seen as just one mode until the bigger part of the picture came along – Evacuation. Evacuation is a combination of modes, maps, and campaign effects that provide over 800,000 different possible paths, giving you a ridiculous amount of variety for a different experience almost every time you play Evacuation. For an example, if the Hunters had won a round, sentry turrets would pop up on certain areas of the map, attacking the Monsters if it came within radius. While it isn’t necessarily a campaign in the classic sense, there is still indeed a story to tell. The planet Shear is being overrun by Monsters. Within five days, the battle for Shear will be won or lost depending on the actions of four Hunters…and, of course, one mutating Monster. Those five days are broken up into five rounds as you fight your way across the planet. The first round is always Hunt, on a randomly chosen map.

After watching the trailer and tutorial, this game mode has me very excited. You’ll find that both the humans and monster will end up having additional AI companions. It’ll be unique to see what it’s like to go toe-to-toe with 2 or 3 Goliaths or running around with a badass squad full of Hunters.
