Evolve Will Launch With 12 Hunters, 3 Monsters

Evolve is one of the many games coming out this October, and for multiplayer fans, it might be one of the most interesting. With 4-versus-1 combat, four players get to take control of Hunters while a fifth controls a gigantic monster.

Back when the second four Hunters were revealed, we wondered how many there would be in total. Well, out of E3 we learned that there will be 12 Hunters for you to play as when the game launches. No specifics were given about the remaining four, but we assume that is one more for each class.

Three monster options will be available at launch. A fourth will come as a part of Evolve’s DLC, but although the DLC is a preorder bonus, it won’t be ready for the game’s release. Players who preorder the game will simply be able to get the DLC for free when it comes out. That’s a nice way to keep game content as a preorder bonus without having day-1 DLC.

Thanks to IGN, you can check out a 14-minute gameplay demo from E3.

Evolve will release on October 21 for the PS4, Xbox One, and PC. (Despite the system being built for this sort of 4-on-1 multiplayer, it isn’t planned for the Wii U.) What do you think? Are you looking forward to trying this out with your friends?
