How do you take down a colossal creature that constantly grows in strength? With help from three other friends, of course! Turtle Rock Studios - the makers of the legendary co-op franchise Left 4 Dead - have released a spiritual successor in Evolve, an asymmetric shooter that carries over many of its gameplay elements from the developer’s landmark zombie-filled FPS. But has Evolve surpassed the near-perfection that Left 4 Dead established in the realm of co-op first-person shooters?
Verdict
The Co-Op Experience: Team up with three other players to take down a large computer-controlled monster in a first person shooter scenario.
