Evolve, that game that crushed the hopes and dreams of many gamers when it launched back in February of 2015. Turtle Rock Studios attempt at a new first person shooter IP failed miserably last year with its fanbase falling off in less than a month and getting absolutely horrendous reviews across the board.

July 6th 2016 marked the appearance of a counter on the game’s website, which caught the attention of people wondering what this game was going to attempt now. We finally know that Turtle Rock is turning Evolve into a free-to-play game across the board, and the beta starts tomorrow.

Don’t worry - if you purchased the game like me and thousands of disappointed people across the globe, you will be granted what they term “Founders Status” for the game, if you decide to play. Turtle Rock is probably hoping that this will somehow boost the game’s stats and player rates, although I severely doubt it will.

Evolve might catch the gamer’s eye once more and maybe be decent this time around (joking of course). It’s massive storage size, regardless of HDD space on your PC or Console, is not worth the maybe 5 minutes of fun you will get out of the install time period, no matter how long it takes.
